In its Award Letter, the Committee on the William Henry Seward Award commented as follows: “we found your dual biography original, thought-provoking and extremely readable. To bring fresh insights on two of the most researched persons in American history is outstanding. A book like yours is why this prize was created in the first place. It was a unanimous selection by the committee.”
