Reviews of The Better Country by Scott Johnson

Johnson presents us with a very limited time frame and few but well-defined characters, both of which enhance our sense of intimacy with the scenes. The problems presented occurred in reality many times during our Civil War, and the resolution here feels satisfying.

Scott Johnson steps back into time and gives us a sense of men seeking to know who they are and what their purpose is. He does this by creating a feeling of identity with both the characters and the situation. A well written and enjoyable glimpse into those things that drove men then and today.

This short story is engaging and emotional. The author has skillfully used the backdrop of war to depict an eternal truth that we all need to hear. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
