"[A Moral Reckoning"]" breaks important new ground. . . . Not a word is wasted in a book that can only be read with profit by all" --"Spectator
""An impressive bill of indictments. . . . The strength of Mr. Goldhagen's argument is that it makes strikingly clear the ways in which the Inquisition, the pogroms, and the Holocaust are links in the same dread historical chain." --"The New York Times
""Insisting that it is high time to 'call a spade a spade, ' [Goldhagen] has written a post-Holocaust moral reckoning with Christianity, and the Roman Catholic Church in particular, that pulls few punches and guarantees a hard-hitting bout over history, ethics and theology. Goldhagen's book is unlikely to leave its readers indifferent. Its significance, however, depends less on immediate reactions and more on what happens 10, 20 or even 100 years after its appearance. Goldhagen may be helping to create a new Christianity. It will take time to tell." --"Los Angeles Times" "From the Trade Paperback edition."
