--Kellie Strickland, North Carolina State University "North Carolina Historical Review ""Madison's personality comes alive in these pages, his strengths and weaknesses of mind and character clearly outlined. His great services in the Constitutional Convention of 1787 are graphically portrayed. The analysis of his political theory, and of the way in which he sought to apply it to the establishment of of government under the Constitution, is excellent. The depiction of Jeffersonian and Madisonian foreign policy up to the outbreak of the War of 1812 is clear and succinct. This is an excellent biography.
--American Historical ReviewUtilizing the vast amount of source material made available in the last 30 years, Ketcham has captured the essential man in his times and in doing so has made him understandable for us in our own day.
--Los Angeles TimesThis single volume has provided a penetrating and highly readable biography which merits distinction as the best one-volume life of Madison yet written.
