A short summary of The Bastard:
How an illegitimate French heir of an English duke became an American patriot.
Favorite John Jakes quote from the book:
Reading is the means by which the lowest man can lift himself from a state of ignorance.
Questions to ponder while reading The Bastard:
Would you have pressed your case?
Can you walk away from money?
My review of the book:
There was a lot of action.
There was a lot of intrigues.
There were a lot of unlikeable characters.
Still, though I liked the book.
