Description

This is a sound, very full, altogether welcome biography of one of the strangest careers in American letters. -- Alfred Kazin, The New York Times Book Review "Ludington's fine, sweeping study . . . shows in full color Dos Passos the paradox, the self-contradiction, the eccentric of such proportions that the mere facts of his life would make arresting reading even if he had no particular genius." -- Washington Post Book World
