Reviews

"These works are distinguished by Parkman’s vigorous and resourceful prose, alive with ingenious figurative language and resonant description. His method is basically novelistic: he renders specific dramatic scenes, invents appropriate dialogue, and describes his characters’ presumed thoughts and feelings. The result is a panorama that never dwarfs personalities—a demonstration of historical process that is, at the same time, deeply attentive to the human concerns that shaped it.” —The Christian Science Monitor
