David Ward's astute examination of this unique polymath introduces unexpected aspects of the man and, in so doing, sheds new light on the genius of the American Enlightenment. A masterly portrait, and an interpretive tour de force." - Charles C. Eldredge, author of Tales from the Easel: American Narrative Paintings
