Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this bookfor the sole reason that Frank DeFord's name was attached to it. I wanted to see how this veteran 'sportswriter' would handle the topic of love and war. I have to say that he did a good job. He deftly describes pre-war Japan, and remains true to historical fact, for the most part. The love story between Cotton and Miyuki is somewhat 'Harlequin-esque' - (Lots of lingering looks, heavy breathing, unsaid declarations of love, descriptions of longing etc.) However, the strength of the story more than compensates for the romantic corniness - I was hooked. I would go as far to say that I would recommend it to my husband, who generally avoids romance tales.
