I'm somewhat obsessed with the Civil War period pitting brother against brother. The Thackery Journal puts an intriguing spin on what-if? Two best friends find themselves on opposing sides and "What-If" becomes the defining moment in their lives. The details the author captures put this reader in the time and the place, breathing the air, tasting the tastes, and feeling the angst. The story holds together smoothly as the father of one of the young men reads from the journal left behind by his dead son. The main story line is the assassination of Abraham Lincoln as plotted by his closest generals. An intriguing thought.
