"Rappleye, a journalist whose one previous book was about organized crime, skillfully details the complex relationship between these brothers, whose differences over slavery tested but never destroyed their friendship."

"The leap from the Mafia to colonial New England is a long one, but Rappleye makes it with style. He is a diligent researcher and a fair-minded, unjudgmental chronicler of the Browns' complicated story."
