PRAISE FOR ALL THE KING'S MEN "Over the course of more than two
centuries of vivid political history, there is perhaps only one
full-blooded American novel of politics that plunges deep into the
hearts of its characters and therefore into the hearts of its
readers, thus rising to the top ranks of American fiction. That is
Robert Penn Warren's lush All the King's Men."

entered our collective literary consciousness, in the company of
Captain Ahab, Huck Finn, Jay Gatsby, Holden Caulfield, Rabbit
Angstrom, and very few others."
