“The writing is sprightly and erudite, not overly concerned with explaining established historical theories…The author’s final urging of a mutually respectful, balanced hemisphere justifies the book’s fast-paced journey through time in consideration of our shared history.” Publishers Weekly
“Paul Hecht is well known for his fine performances. His deep, resonant voice has a confident, authoritative quality that is perfect for this work.” AudioFile
“Libraries would do well to add this title as well as the author’s other characteristically readable histories.” Booklist
