★ "A fast-paced, even suspenseful read that brings history dramatically alive." -- Booklist, starred review

"An almost irrefutable argument that global events are as inextricable as they are unpredictable, and that history is not, in fact, a straight timeline." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"This compelling volume on mid-20th-century American politics is a must for research students and history buffs alike." -- School Library Journal
