PRAISE FOR GOD’S SOLDIERS BY JONATHAN WRIGHT
"Well researched, broadly learned, sophisticated, fast-paced, sympathetic yet critical, somewhat impressionistic in approach and sometimes breezy in style. I recommend it . . . Wright has a gift for ferreting out stories and particularly vivid incidents to illustrate his larger points, and he uses it to great advantage in the book. But do not be deceived. This is a book by a well-trained historian who just happens to bear his learning lightly." —John O’Malley America: The National Catholic Weekly
"Wright’s witty book . . . makes for a rollercoaster read . . . His readers are left in no doubt about the centrality of the Jesuits in world history since 1540." —Eamon Duffy, Sunday Telegraph
"God’s Soldiers goes for the broad picture but doesn’t lose the human element, and Wright’s dry wit keeps things lively." —Star-Telegram (Fort Worth)
"Wright, a British historian, tells their amazing story in this thoroughly documented account. Given the scope of his subject, Wright's was no small task, and he has neatly compressed the four-century Jesuit saga into a reasonably concise and balanced history." —Publishers Weekly
"Seeking to separate fact from fiction and to set the often romanticized or exaggerated record straight, Wright offers a balanced overview that represents and preserves all the gore and glory of the Jesuit past." —Booklist
