Title: A juicy bio that really brings its subject to life
Review: What a wonderful and enjoyable book. The author truly understands the dilemmas of JQA's life. Unlike many biographers who fail to use a modern perspective to help enhance the subject, Nagel does an excellent analysis of JQA, particularly when it comes to his controlling parents and the problems caused by frequent cycles of depression. I only regretted that we didn't get more perspective of what was happening with some of the other "key players" at the time -- I kept having to run to the encyclopedia. While I usually don't care about footnotes, I was disappointed Nagel included so little about sources as it would have been helpful for further reading. These are small points, however, about an otherwise excellent book. Don't miss it!
