No Certain Rest: A Novel - Softcover

Críticas

"No Certain Rest reads like Antietam: blood-soaked, fast-charging, filled with twists, and as hauntingly irresistible to a Civil War buff as the battle itself." --Tony Horwitz

"[A] smoothly told story about courage and cowardice on the battlefield." --Alan Cheuse (NPR), The Dallas Morning News

"[Lehrer] writes quirky thrillers, swiftly paced with a cleverly concealed solution. . . . [No Certain Rest is] a rousing tale of intrigue."--Jeremy C. Shea, St. Louis Post-Dispatch

"The heart of No Certain Rest [and] its most riveting passages [are] presented as excerpts from memoirs written by Union soldiers and veterans. The first-person voices are consistently compelling. They paint vivid tableaux; they shine with the truthfulness, hard-held values and modesty of an unrecoverable age."
--Kai Maristed, Los Angeles Times
