5.0 out of 5 stars A 1952 novel by one of the best historical novelists 29 Aug 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format: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.
