RaveThe St. Louis Post-DispatchQuinn is the first to have full access to the letters, and there could not have been a better writer to entrust with them ... The biography marvelously weaves the lives of these two women together, showing their fierce independence and yet continual dependence on each other. The book also reflects a refreshing change in cultural opinion, most likely one that will usher in books on other historical homosexual relationships just as well-researched and kind as Eleanor and Hick.
