I appreciate the statement that your tastes might be totally different from others who read this book. "Two Brothers" is very closely based on real people and events. The historical characters lived in difficult times and, in my view, their memory should be honored and respected. For this reason, I minimized "character development," hoping that readers would become emotionally involved with the characters given their authenticity. Thanks again for hosting my book on the TLC Book Tour and for conducting the book giveaway.David H Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07438546188279935773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-301821240465985158.post-90971183333792708802008-11-20T00:59:00.000-06:002008-11-20T00:59:00.000-06:00Please enter me.
