Booth

There are a couple times I have read a book that tells us about the family of a famous historical character. This is a book like that. We see life from the perspective of various Booth children except for John. We see the struggles they all had to live up to a name and not show that the various scandals affected them. Each Booth child has their own big foible that threatens to bring them down, but they still work so hard to be there for the family. Then John makes history and they are all in their own way shattered. I enjoyed listening to the family drama and heartbreak because it humanized these historical figures.
