5.0 out of 5 stars
A 1952 novel by one of the best historical novelists,
By A Customer
This review is from: Steamboat Gothic (Paperback)
"Steamboat Gothic" is a term for the style of architecture ". . . which was inspired by the floating palaces that plied the Mississippi River during its Golden Age." From the book's forward by the author. Though the tale of a riverman and his family, there is little actual river in the book. There is, however, lots of accurate "period" in the book. As you would expect from F.P.K., it is a good read.
