Recensione:

“Riveting . . . vivid . . . brilliantly depicted.”—Chicago Tribune

“The Last Full Measure is more than another historical novel. It is rooted in history, but its strength is the element of humanity flowing through its characters. . . . The book is compelling, easy to read, well researched and written, and thought-provoking. . . . In short, it is everything that a reader could ask for.”—Chicago Tribune

“Masterful . . . These characters come alive as complex, heroic, and flawed men.”—Baltimore Sun

“[Shaara] writes with considerable sensitivity and skill, setting vivid scenes and adding drama and suspense to a familiar tale.”—The Seattle Times
 
“Exhaustively researched, infused with a profound understanding of the great issues of a nation and the small quirks of the human heart.”—Newsday
