Book Reviews of Guns of the South
Book Review: A long, long, long time ago, this didn't happen...
Summary: 1 Stars
I must admit the premise of this book is facsinating, but the excess detail Turtledove goes into slows the pace down to a glacial crawl. I found my self skipping entire sections, mostly the battle descriptions. There is nothing really compelling or interesting about reading how Confederate soldiers blast the Union Army apart with modern AK-47's. The entire book is a forgone conclusion before you get three chapters into it.
