354 pages; Very Good condition. One spine reading crease. Age tanned to white part of cover, especially spine. Just a bit of rub at edges. Name to half-title page. Solid, otherwise clean. The difference between this biography and most of its predecessors is that every opinion is buttressed with fact. For those who want to know the man himself, to understand the circumstances under which he wrote, to see him against the background of the times, this is the book - factual, scholarly and utterly absorbing.
