*Sunday Telegraph*
1999 Outstanding Academic Book of the Year.
*Choice*
A penetrating, lucid, intellectual biography.
*George Steiner*
A remarkable biography of a fascinating figure and in this case not
'too soon'.
*The Guardian*
Excellent results for our understanding of this unusually
complicated and highly individualistic historian, but also for our
understanding of his times.
*the National Interest*
Haslam charts with thoroughness every twist and turn in Carr's long
odyssey, which was marked with ferocious independence of
thought.
*History Today*
This book will probably remain Carr's definitive biography.
*Times Literary Supplement*
