gettinglostinagoodbook's review against another edition
4.0
If I could give 3 1/2 I would.
I truly enjoyed the mastery of the language, Cato brought the charters and scenery to life in a vibrant manner. Often I felt like I could actually see the places that Delie was travelling to.
Living and growing with Philadelphia Gordon, from childhood to late in life I found myself brought to both tears and laughter. Reading of a strong female character who was willing to break gender barriers was refreshing and rewarding.
I did find the book to be a bit lengthy, feeling that some of the story could have been omitted without affecting the overall feeling and understanding.
