Review:
"...a vivid, novelistic narrative that makes the reader acutely aware of the magnitude of the horror perpetrated by King Leopold and his minions."
Michiko Kakutani, New York Times, 09/01/1998
Review:"Adam Hochschild's 'King Leopold's Ghost' is an absorbing and horrifying account of the traffic in human misery that went on in Leopold's so-called Congo Free State....Among other things, it stands as a reminder of how quickly enormities can be forgotten....[a] gripping narrative, as dense as a novel and laden with subplots...."
Luc Sante, San Francisco Chronicle Book Review, 09/27/1998
