Despite the scarcity of female characters so far, the lively wry dialogue is marvelous. I'm hopeful the author will do a book tour!

I agree with the earlier reviewers who noted Dayle so generously loaded this tale with provocative quips and witticisms that reading more slowly is required. I don't want to miss any details!

There is much silly irony in this wry retelling from the era of the US Civil War. A fine comparison to James McBride's work, especially The Good Lord Bird.
