Review:
The nearly 200 images in American Characters represent the scope of American portrait painting and popular illustration. . . . But it is the range of comments that gives this book its particular flavor--most historical, some hostile, all enhancing the impression made by the portrait itself. . . . The portrait selections are witty and full of surprises. . . . This is a book you can get lost in for hours. Even the notes on the portraits and the commentary make fascinating reading. -- David Walton, New York Times Book Review
