Critics Review

“They write like one extremely stylish man and research like a dozen assiduous ones…. As kingly in its primal and tragic sweep as any story that inspired Shakespeare and Sophocles, The Fords stands alone as the ultimate American dynastic saga, and Collier and Horowitz have told it with surpassing style and drive. It’s a book, as they say in Detroit, with gasoline in its veins.”—San Francisco Examiner“The Fords has integrity and consequence….

Epic!”—Detroit News
