Somewhat narratively enjoyable, but is so heavily opinionated that its historical accuracy is dubious.

what a knife - what a story. Um, yeah, I doubt I will ever make it through this one, but it was fun to spend 10 minutes on the BART reading about an epic knife fight/duel by the river.

proven to be not very historically accurate but still a great read if you're interested in the bowie knife in general. all the press releases on the duels and such was very interesting.
