I love John Jakes. I have read every book he has written. He is the best and most accurate history author and his books are always wonderful. This is the second time I have read "Charleston". I loved it! Genny
Another one of John Jakes wonderful books.He never fails me.
Excellent read depicting the old South and the struggles in Charleston during its fall. This book also has a great deal of factual information about the events leading up to the Civil War.
Loved it. Wasn't long enough. Jakes did some in depth research. Love how he combines historical people with his fiction.
From the New York Times bestselling author who "makes history come alive" comes a novel that spans decades and generations....
from the American Revolution through the downfall of the Confederacy...In John Jake's most ambitious work yet...

Had a little problem getting into this book, but then it moved along. Ending was weak. But a good read for those of us that can only relate to history through a novel.

John Jakes has a way to make you feel that you are right there in the civil war era.
