Abstract

This is the best written biography I have read in many years. A beautifully crafted book, it is a comprehensive picture and excellent scholarly treatment of a most unpleasant person, a person one can have little sympathy for in today's world. And yet, to the credit of the author, one comes away from this work having a much greater understanding of Alice Fletcher and a more balanced view of the meaning of her work.
