Reviews

An engaging, provocative book. . . . As a study of symbol-making [it] is first-rate.-- "Washington Post"

An excellent reappraisal of Lee. Highly recommended.-- "Library Journal"

Connelly provides a fascinating insight into the historical press-agentry through which Lee was enshrined as...an exemplar of American virtues.-- "Saturday Review"
