Reviews

"Michael Nolan's broad and deep learning, sharp thinking, and elegant style combine to make fresh and exciting reading out of what might have been thought to be a familiar tale of bygone mutual hostility between two peoples and cultures. He bears his erudition lightly, yet it blows through every portion of this fine work." Rudolph Binion, Brandeis University "This study shines by its elegance, erudition, and thoughtfulness ... It is a joy to read." Paul Jankowski, Brandeis University
