Bartlett (read 28 Oct 1978) This book is not a very full biography of Webster, being only 295 pages. The book does not portray Webster in a very good light, and I think not very highly of him. He drank too much, his morals left much to be desired, his attitude to money paid to him did not live up to present standards. All in all, I can admire only his oratory. [There is a much better biography of Webster which I later read: Daniel Webster: The Man and His Times, by Robert V. Remini (read 26 Jul 1998)] ( ) Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
For forty years, until his death in 1852, Daniel Webster played a dominant national role as a lawyer, orator, congressman, senator, secretary of state, leader of two major parties, and perennial presidential candidate. This new biography, drawing on the recently collected Webster papers, explains the Webster phenomenon in terms of the powerful positive and negative images he projected for nineteenth-century Americans.
