My Reviews
I found the historical information of NYC in the early 1900s interesting and well researched. The scenes of garment workers and their working conditions were particularly moving.
The best message of this book was how the 9 boys learned to work together to become a team. They all struggled with different hardships in the 1930s. The author does a great job of setting the story in the time period and it does read almost like fiction at times. My only complaint is that some of the descriptions got pretty flowery with details like the coach chewing gum while watching a race (how was this known?).
