James Mace Ward noted that book's coverage of twentieth-century history was much more in depth than its coverage of  prior eras, and that non-Slovak peoples who lived in the territory of present-day Slovakia were ignored. The book was praised in "Denník SME", which stated that it was the first time that an overview of Slovak history had been published by such a prestigious press in English and also felt that it was an evenhanded and objective book.
