Being a news editor myself i thoroughly enjoyed the historical information endorsed in the novel about the various printing and publishing techniques. The idea of special edition was very innovative. As for the characters, it was easy for me to imagine them because the author has given a detailed portray of every character. I enjoyed the romance between Johnny Henry and Kathleen. The harmony between a red headed, educated, talented and smart women with intellect to that of a Brave Cowboy with the Cherokee decent was astounding. They both seemed to complete each other in a contending sort of a way. The character of Clara and her tragic death made me emerge with mixed feelings of hatred and Sorry. Overall, its a good read that gives you an insight into the culture of old times (Great Depression). You will enjoy it as it is complete package of Action, Drama, Romance and Suspense.
