Reviews
"A realistic biography, a rare find. On putting down this book one feels that one has read the history of all pioneering."-New York Times Book Review
"An amazing portrait. Mari Sandoz has written the truth. And she has given it to us as if she had cut it, like a sod, from the live ground."-New York Herald Tribune Books
"It is a magnificent job. The great virtue of Miss Sandoz's book is that you can see it happening. There is a good deal of America in Old Jules. It is, heaven knows, an enthralling story. But it is more than that, and much deeper. It is an experience in citizenship."-Saturday Review of Literature
