This is perhaps one of the best books I have ever read! In fact, I felt compelled to email the author, which is something I've never, ever done. The protagonist is Ben, a child prodigy growing up in the deep south during the 1930s that has an innate ability and comprehension level that is nothing less than sheer genius. The book is also believable and full of surprises. It is very well written, informative and historically accurate in terms of events that transpired during that era. The author is exciting, precise and incredibly articulate, as his words flow across the page like a beautiful waltz or two step. I highly recommend this book; however, don't start it if you have anything pressing to do, because it simply will not get done until your finished! Five stars for this author!
