The Bolter -- Frances Osborne

The idea of this book is fun, but a hundred pages is, I realize that there really no plot. I feel halfway inclined to finish it because of the glowing reviews, but there's so much information about random people, that it comes across as a history book written by someone with little skill for creating a page turner.  Don't remember if it affected my dreams, I gave it up a few days ago when I was having nightmares about soldiers shooting each other point blank in a storm.  Both of the sons in this book died around 30 and were soldiers, but there wasn't much of that story told.
