I love documentary style books in general but this one was overly verbose. It was written to make the reader think it actually happened but then the footnotes didn’t follow real-world writing styles. So many things that needed citations weren’t cited and so many things that wouldn’t need citations were (if this were an academic text). There were also many many many many many many many details that were not relevant to the story nor would they be included in a real-world text.
I did like how the author brought up the ills of small town and rural living.
