"The publication of [volumes 3 and 4] brings to a splendid conclusion one of the great historical enterprises of the decade…Setton’s work is a monument not only to the industry of a lifetime but to the concerns of a humanist historian. For all his detail, at once powerful and overwhelming, Setton never forgets the individual, the person who is at the center of the web of events and movements we call history."
