2.0 out of 5 stars
Not an objective description of an exceptional person,
This review is from: Bart Giamatti: A Profile (Hardcover)
Having known and worked with Bart Giammati when he was a professor and later president of Yale University, I find this biography incomplete and subjective.It is not clear to me what the author's objective was in writing this book, but his research was at best incomplete, at worst: Biased. There is no indication in the list of people that he interviewed for the book that he met with anyone who actually worked 24/7 during the "revolutionary days" of the sixties and seventies to keep the University going and one glaring omission is any mention of the attempt to blow up the Ingalls Hockey Rink during a meeting! Bart Giammati, like most of us, was not perfect, but he was one of the finest human beings I have been privileged to know and he deserves better than this book. Peter H.
