Powerful.

Excellent.

Riveting, with a subject who's a gift to anyone hoping to make history come alive for readers.

Enthralling.

With a probing vibrancy, Egan...unfurls this powerful tale of a psychopathic zealot who came dangerously close to reshaping America in his warped image. This riveting exposé of a sordid chapter in U.S. history has frightening parallels to present conflicts..

This riveting history seem disturbingly familiar and undeniably chilling.

Shocking.
