How do you 'recreate' and 'capture' people's feeling, thoughts, and transcripts? I started reading the book and, to me, it is like trading a fiction book with a few ' historical' facts ( like places and dates) thrown in. I couldn't finish it, or probably didn't want to, unusual for me, an avid reader, so I returned it free if charge to Vinnies, where I originally picked it up for the princely sum of $5.00!
