Kirkus: Starred Review
“A family’s history chronicles the history of the nation.
Journalist and biographer Meier draws on hundreds of hours of interviews and prodigious archival research to craft an absorbing narrative following four generations of one of America’s most prominent families.…
A majestic, authoritative multigenerational saga.”

Publishers Weekly: Starred Review
“Meier’s narrative mixes political drama… with colorful family melodrama…. It’s also a vivid panorama of the New York that made the Morgenthaus…. The result is a fascinating family portrait on the grandest scale. ”
“Morgenthau: Power, Privilege, and the Rise of an American Dynasty,” Publishers Weekly Starred Review, June 28, 2022.
