From these great prose stylists, he inherits a gift for crisp, clear prose, wry humor, and an unerring eye for the telling anecdote. Few match either Donaldson's broad knowledge of his subjects or the affable critical clarity he brings to his readings of their lives and texts. -- Jennie Kassanoff, Barnard College What a pleasure it is to have Scott Donaldson's clear-eyed, insightful, and above all gracefully written essays on F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway available in one volume. His many years as a careful and attentive reader, his knowledge of the relevant scholarship, and his command of unpublished manuscripts and letters are apparent on every page. -- Jackson R. Bryer, University of Maryland Well-researched and masterfully written. Library Journal Two very influential American writers are made more approachable through the means of brilliant biography. -- Bill O'Donovan Virginia Gazette Splendid, erudite.
