Praise for this book
"Love Letters is a volume of uncommon originality and depth, richly illustrated with photographs from the carving era, many of them unfamiliar. The combination makes a wonderful addition to the Rushmore story." -- South Dakota Magazine "http://www.southdakotamagazine.com/"
Richard Cerasani and the South Dakota Historical Society Press "have produced a very impressive book. [The] storytelling is very engaging. I would say that it is probably the most graphic description of what work on the mountain was like." -- Robin Borglum Kennedy, The Borglum Estate "http://www.godakota.com/editorial.asp?read-about=gold-choice-award"
