Book cover of The Remarkable Rise of Eliza Jumel

Eliza was a modern woman in a most un-modern time. Her tactics were considered unseemly by some, but reading her story today, one can only raise a glass, tip a hat, bow down and say, “Brava!”

Liz Smith, New York Social Diary, March 7, 2016.

Margaret A. Oppenheimer, The Remarkable Rise of Eliza Jumel: A Story of Marriage and Money in the Early Republic (2015).

A readable, well-documented book that will be of value in consumer-health collections.

Janet M. Schneider (James A. Haley Veterans’ Hosp.), Library Journal

The book is easy-to-read and is detailed, accurate and well researched.

Margaret A. Oppenheimer, Beat Crohn’s: Getting to Remission with Enteral Nutrition (2009).

But such is the virtue, once again, of these pages and their author: knowledge is always put back in play or questioned, at the risk of being wrong sometimes, but assuredly to the benefit of a better knowledge and understanding of these French portraitists whom American research continues to serve so well.

Stéphane Guégan, La Tribune de l’Art, February 4, 2006 (translated from French)

Margaret A. Oppenheimer, The French Portrait: Revolution to Restoration (2005).
