March by Geraldine Brooks

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The book Little Women by Louisa May Alcott is a classic that tells of the women of the March family. The father in the story is a minor character as he is away at war.

This book tells his story, predominantly during his time away at war but some background of his youth.

I liked this book. Though I admit that i have not read the inspiration book, but have seen many movie adaptations. I can see why this won a Pulitzer.

I can also see why many do not like this book, especially how the main character comes across as naive and idealistic. But honestly I found that a believable thing for a man raised in the North turned chaplain during the antebellum and war times of the United States.

I'm kinda stretching it for this category as only a small portion of the story was not from Mr. March's point of view.
