I just got this book yesterday.

I am about a hundred pages into it.

Does not look good. I really wonder, if all these people actually read the books they review.

I will say this, Caro is a skillful and supple writer who knows how to carry a narrative.

But I have always been one who says that what you are saying is as important, or in the field of history, even more important than how you say it.
