I Read that Book
Ron Chernow's biography of George Washington won this year's Pulitzer Prize for biography. I read Chernow's book and I throughly enjoyed it. There was much about Washington that I did not know, and for filling in a lot of details that I and I suspect many others did not know, Chernow provides a valuable service. However, I thought David and Jeanne Heidler's biography of Henry Clay was the better book.

And, while they *were* on your Christmas list, you did receive both of them from your cute and fun wife. :) I'm glad you enjoyed the book, and that you have such good taste in biographies!
