James Perrin – The Observer
Roger Hubank comes close to producing the first great historical novel of the twenty-first century.

James Perrin – The Observer
These mirrorings of physical and moral squalor open out into disturbing reflections on ambition, malignity, envy and media-directed perception.

I tried to read this book, but it beat me. It wasn't badly written, the subject matter was good, but it just couldn't hold my attention. It was probably a case of the wrong book for my current state of mind!

Polar exploration is one of my favorite historical topics. So, I found this fictional account of the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition very moving. Parish, the fictional version of Adolphus Washington Greeley, and his men were brave as they faced struggles that could have been partly avoided except for some people back home not understanding what the expedition was going through.
