Rezensionen

"Serge Ricard and his collaborators in this magnificent enterprise have managed to convey both the complexity of the person and the appeal of the leader... conveyed in essays which manage to blend critical scholarship with clarity of expression." (The Journal of Transatlantic Studies, December 2013)

"It is solidly made and will last. It comes as a hardback and, somewhat more cheaply, as an e-book." (Reference Reviews, 1 December 2012)

"The Blackwell Companions to American History series provides essential and authoritative overviews of the scholarship that has shaped our present understanding of the American past." (Expofairs.com, 3 December 2011)
