I must admit that I had a bit of problem getting into this book. The reason for that was the main character Favian Markham. It took some getting to like. At first I did not know whether he was going to be a character you could like or if there was no hope for him being a likable character., but as the story evolved so did Favian Markham develop. Set in the War of 1812, this story brings in the fact that while we fought the British, the British were at war with France and her allies. It is a an interesting story well worth reading just to see the politics of the time. Also to remember that a segment of America did not want to take part in the war. So despite the slow start this was a good read.
