The Search for Maggie Ward

I am really not sure I liked this book. I was a youngster, (13 and 14) in 46 and 47 so some of the descriptive history of that time was interesting but somehow, the energy Jerry spent looking for Andrea, Maggie, or whoever she was was not too believable plus some of their dialogue was boring. I hope somebody else will put a current review but I guess not too many are interested in this book and I wouldn't have been if I hadn't had it given to me. This was my first and only by Greely.

It is easy to see that Greeley wrote this book earlier in his career and often falls back on cliches of women and certain dated language. His more recent work has improved tremendously. (See White Smoke and the Nuala Mc Grail novels). Overall, as are all Greeley books, highly entertaining, if someone implausible. Enjoyable, if you take it for what it's worth.
