Very good book. I am a bit biased because I do love history. Recent history like this is really important to be aware of particularly because of current events going on now and witnessing history repeating itself. My only quibble is that the book couldn't decide if it was a straight up biography/history book or a fictionalized story of true events. I feel like it would have been stronger if they picked one. But overall, a very good read. I learned a lot.

Pretty cool story. This is an era I never learned enough about. Fascinating to see what people went through and to wonder what you'd do in the same place and time. In some ways it felt like a podcast, but I don't know that I'd say that if I hadn't known it was one.

Good it just wasn’t grabbing my attention like my other books right now. I’d like to read it later at some point.
