Reviews for From the Outside in
"[Sparrow] has thought hard and boldly about theoretically important issues, has devised clever comparative and historical means to appraise his arguments, and has expanded our knowledge of state processes. In doing so, he has provided a new and provocative interpretation on an important episode in the history of the U.S. state."
