This was definitely interesting. My dad recommended it. Now he normally reads procedurals and thrillers. This was outside of his normal. I did enjoy this one. It's another in the same vein as Louis L'Amour series, the Sacketts, where we follow a family from its founding in England to its present day in the United States. Only this one starts in the 1920s, not the 1560s. Makes it much more approachable I think. We follow a young Harry Clifton as he learns about himself and travels through school. It was curious and I'm looking forward go going back to my dad's to exchange this one for the next volume.
