description: "Ironical, Urbane, deft, and reflective.... A book any man might be proud to have written about a life any man might be proud to have lived...This life unrolls with something of the sureness and direction which can scarcely be described without reference to the mysteries of genius and destiny which enter into the life of a great man."-Carl Van Doren
