Before Lewis and Clark: The Story of the Chouteaus, the French Dynasty that Ruled America’s Frontier
"(An) admirable group portrait of the prominent Chouteau family." -- Larry McMurtry, The New York Review of Books "A true tale of exploration, settlement, the Indian wars, life on the frontier and the enormous risks taken by pioneers." --J. E. McReynolds, The Oklahoman "(Reveals a family) that built an empire ... on the ability to understand diverse peoples and cater to their needs." --Kathleen DuVal, The Chicago Tribune
Nicaragua: Revolution in the Family
"Nicaragua: Revolution in the Family may stand as the definitive account of the fall of Anastasio Somoza and the rise of the Sandinistas." --Wall Street Journal "Must reading, especially since the question of what to do about Nicaragua will be with us for years ... Nicaragua is easy sledding, non-hysterical, well researched, and honest." --New York Magazine "(Christian) cuts through mendacity and obfuscation with a powerful combination of thorough research, eyewitness experience and reportorial savvy." --Boston Globe
