Richard Hemmer reviewed Voltaire Almighty by Roger Pearson
Review of 'Voltaire Almighty' on 'LibraryThing'
5 stars
An eminently readable biography of Voltaire. Informed, authoritative, humorous, Pearson manages to convey exactly how Voltaire came to be the poster-child of the enlightenment movement and ground-breaker for ideas that would ultimately lead to the French revolution.
