The Whiskey Rebels

Praise

A Conspiracy of Paper
“The plot draws you in from page to page. . . . An evocation of English history that you can happily get lost in for days.”
–The New York Times

“Tremendously smart, assured, and entertaining . . . an intricate mystery, a colorful rogues’ gallery and, improbably, a history lesson on the birth of the stock market.”
–Newsweek

A Spectacle of Corruption
“[A] wonderful book . . . every bit as good as [Liss’s] remarkable debut . . . easily one of the year’s best.”
–The Boston Globe

“[A] rousing sequel of historical intellectual suspense.”
–San Antonio Express-News


The Coffee Trader
“Percolates with seventeenth-century intrigue . . . A story of cutthroat financial schemes, merciless creditors, collapsing markets, and deceitful men . . . In this book, even the hero is no saint.”
–USA Today

“An entertaining tale . . . [a] learned page-turner . . . Despite the many characters and plot twists, Mr. Liss keeps his story in graceful motion.”
–The Wall Street Journal
