'Raines in the Day' by Gene Lee was given to me by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review of this book.
John Raines had quite a story to tell. His life was during a significant time in the history of the USA. It spanned from the early 1900s to the 1960s. John witnessed the Spanish flu epidemic, prohibition, WWI, WWII and the Korean war. I appreciated that the book was written in such a eventful time in history. 'Raines in the Day' is a well told story which kept my interest. John"s personal story was well told.
However, I was hoping to feel more of the mood of the eras he live through. The story of John was told as a personal story with very little attention paid to the remarkable historical events of his time. Thanks NetGalley for sharing this book. It was a good read.
