Character Inspiration

Atticus Finch by Joseph Crespino
4 stars

This book is an interesting look at how Harper Lee's father, A.C. Lee, inspired the character of Atticus Finch.  Her father was in some ways a typical Southern gentleman from the early 1900's, but he also had a strong sense of justice that is similar to how she wrote Atticus Finch.  I thought this brief book was interesting and a good examination of How to Kill a Mockingbird.  I received this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
