Reviews
Bothwell writes of these two nations always clearly and sometimes with wry humor; he is a pleasure to read."-CHOICE
Robert Bothwell's ambitious dual history of the United States and Canada throws familiar episodes and figures into new light."-Nathan M. Greenfield, Times Literary Supplement
Valuable, ambitious, and fascinating....Canadians as well as Americans are both inheritors of what F. Scott Fitzgerald cast as the 'fresh, green breast of the new world' whose discovery was 'the last and greatest of all human dreams.' What its inhabitants have done with it so far, in somewhat different ways while still inhabiting the same essential culture, is Bothwell's fascinating story." -Jeremy Kinsman, Literary Review of Canada" -Jeremy Kinsman, Literary Review of Canada
"One could say that reciprocity is still the watchword of North American relations. Mr. Bothwell has produced a page-turner on the subject. Two grateful nations should thank him."-David M. Shribman, Wall Street Journal
"Unlike much academic history, [t]his book is one that is actually a pleasure to read."-Asa McKercher, H-Diplo
