The analogy of historian as detective has rarely been used so effectively. . . Mayo’s persuasive reports are satisfying reading largely because he has done his detective spadework thoroughly. One enjoys seeing so many old friends freshly and neatly clothed.
—William and Mary Quarterly
[Mayo] leads his audience with ease and grace through some basic historical questions to present a capsule evaluation, divorced as far as modern scholarship has succeeded, from myth and legend.
