"We sometimes hear it said of an iconoclastic essayist like Mark
Twain or Russell Baker that he is a 'national treasure.' I vote to
include Barbara Holland in this treasure chest."-The Philadelphia
Inquirer
"Though Holland obviously means what she writes, she also is having
good fun, not merely mourning and celebrating what has been lost
but also taking well-aimed whacks at inviting targets."-The
Washington Post
