Historian Russell Kirk described him as "a radical man yet a political conservative" with "alternating ferocity and compassion, his duels, his beautiful letters...his fits of madness...his brandy and opium, his passionate Christianity, his lonely plantation life, and his quixotic opposition to the great political and economic powers of the day.

France: Assouline, 2000. A Very Good Hardcover. Very Good/None Issued. Carefully handled, Text clean, Bindings firm. Light wear on the corners.. The book presents a clear aesthetic vision with more than 200 images --from a Clarence White study of Victorian-era girls at play to Adam Fuss's abstract color photograms -- centered on a page opposite a blank page for undistracted viewing. The printing, four-color throughout though most images are black and white, and the heavy matte paper produce some of the best reproductions this reviewer has ever seen. While no such survey can hope to deliver the definitive canon, this book should become an oft-referenced landmark study. [Eric Bryant, Library Journal]
