LibraryThing Review
Avis d'utilisateur - le.vert.galant - LibraryThingThis is perhaps the most comprehensive biography available of a classical figure. That I found portions of it tedious says more about me than it does the book. Consulter l'avis complet
LibraryThing Review
Avis d'utilisateur - tungsten_peerts - LibraryThingI am neither a Christian nor a religious person of any stripe, and I could NOT put this book down. Intellectual biography of the highest caliber. The Epilogue adds precious new insights, and Peter Brown's humble reflections upon his 1960s original (printed here unchanged). Consulter l'avis complet
