John C. Calhoun was a rare figure in American history: a lifelong politician who was also a profound political philosopher. Vice president under John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson, he was a dominant presence in the U.S. Senate. Now comes a major new biography from the author of Daniel Webster.

"A good, wise, perspicacious work, written in graceful English, free of jargon, offering intelligent conclusions." -Mark Harris, New York Times Book Review
