And I got an extra tickle from this one because he refers to a few of his other books in it. ( ) Once more, John Jakes gives us a novel where a man happens to love a beautiful but evil woman, which causes great unhappiness, and her evil evil blood passes down the generations, while the hero's blood are all noble and good and gay. Oh, and let's not forget the sexity sex sex. This is a truly abominable book, and anyone that can take it off my hands is more than welcome to. no reviews | add a review
Distinctions
From the best-selling author of On Secret Service comes a novel that spans decades and generations. Sweeping from the bitterly divided Carolina frontier of the 1770s through the tragic destruction of the city during the Civil War, and peopled by aristocrats and abolitionists, slaves and freedmen, Charleston is Jakes at his very best.
