“Excellent, and a great way to get students interested in history! It’s extremely creative, and a great approach to teaching.” – Dianne Zazalli DeBella – Writing Professor at University of Colorado
“It may be especially effective as a teaching tool because it is a different way of presenting the information, and is much livelier and more emphatic than most epic poems.” – Bill O’Leary
Christopher Rudolph has “a really powerful voice which is impressive with this poem. I loved it. Quite a tour de force.” – Judy Hammer – High School English and Drama Teacher
