NOTES

"A richly developed portrait of the rise and decline of one of America's best known social klans...a great tale." - BusinessWeek "This fascinating family saga told with the brisk spirit of its subjects, evokes the strength necessary to create a dynasty." - Nicholas Fox Weber, Los Angeles Times Book Review "The stories [the Ungers] compile are a rich and fascinating tapestry." - John C. Ensslin, Rocky Mountain News "I am enthralled. A page-turner. . . . What a palatable way to learn American history!" - Leonard Dinnerstein, author of Natives and Strangers "The best-informed account of the clan. . . . An engaging history of the famous family." - Booklist "Indelible and intriguing . . . meticulously researched and very well written. An American saga." - Norman F. Cantor, author of The Sacred Chain: The History of the Jews "Fascinating...an engaging story recounted by the Ungers in fast-paced, well-documented style." - Robin Updike, Seattle Times "Excellent...pitch-perfect...their narrative moves more swiftly than any 550-page group biogrpahy has any right to." - Francis Morrone, New York Sun
