Trade Review
"This gracefully written, intelligent biography is a wonderful addition to the expanding literature that probes the history of the United States in the context of world history. Kristen E. Gwinn's skillful writing and thorough research will be appreciated by scholars and enjoyed by the many readers it deserves."--Martin J. Sherwin, coauthor (with Kai Bird) of the Pulitzer Prize-winning American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer
"With Kristen E. Gwinn's informative and very enjoyable biography, Emily Greene Balch will no longer live in Jane Addams’s shadow. As a Nobel Peace Prize laureate for her work with the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, Balch is an important figure in our nation’s history. Now, hopefully, she will rightfully be recognized as a leader in peace and social justice history."--Harriet Hyman Alonso, author of Peace as a Women’s Issue: A History of the U.S. Movement for World Peace and Women’s Rights
