Industry Reviews
"[E]xuberant....Kukla's vivid fresco shifts from place to place....Myriad digressions threaten to drown the story in a sea of extraneous detail and drain it of its drama. But if Kukla's book is sometimes lacking in focus and deep political insight, his knowledgeable enthusiasm for his subject and the liveliness and breadth of his narrative make up for its shortcomings."
New York Times Book Review - Susan Dunn (04/13/2003)

"[S]urely as exciting and readable a narrative of the Louisianna Purchase as we are likely to get in the foreseeable future."
New Republic - Gordon S. Wood (05/26/2003)
