"Impressive in its massive presentation of information . . . "Son
of the Morning Star "makes good reading--its prose is elegant, its
tone the voice of dry wit, its meandering narrative skillfully
crafted. Mr. Connell is above all a storyteller, and the story he
tells is vastly more complicated than who did what to whom on June
25, 1876."--Page Stenger, "The New York Times Book Review"
""Son of the Morning Star" leaves the reader astonished."--"The
Washington Post"
"A scintillating book, thoroughly researched and brilliantly
constructed."--"The Wall Street Journal "
