"A mature, intelligent, and exciting work?a rare occurrence in historical writing?A complete history of the American people at war which is so well contrived and so wittily written that it puts to shame both the efforts of professional historians and the products of those writers who merely seek to amuse without intending to inform."?The Nation.
