[E]ntertaining and enlightening... Author Hilty was the right choice to tackle this ambitious endeavor... Aside from Hilty's colorful portrait of [Temple University founder Russell] Conwell and the Philadelphia of his time -- he was actually a New Englander -- one of the book's great joys (in addition to its many splendid illustrations) are the little facts and tidbits that pepper the text. - Jewish Exponent June 2010
