Reviews
- School Library Journal...
"Successfully walking a fine line between maintaining respect for the office as well as her subjects while at the same time serving up some delicious inside gossip, Krull provides fascinating observations...Students who claim that history is boring may change their minds after listening to this recording."
- Horn Book...
"Without being malicious or muckraking, [Krull] transforms icons into human beings with distinct, sometimes quirky personalities who have more in common with their constituents than one might imagine...as addictive as it is fascinating."
Starred Review, Publishers Weekly Best of ‘98 Award, PW...
"As a supplement to other history volumes, or just for the fun of it, this is a fascinating listening experience."
