Review # 1 was written on 2012-03-17 00:00:00 Noel Guanzon 12th entry in my 'presidential project' and the first to kick my ass. made it about 100 pgs and declare myself... conquered. look: the raw material probably ain't as interesting as the 11 which preceded; however, bauer's writing certainly doesn't help matters. do we need to know the spatial dimensions of every house, fort, or garrison taylor inhabited? or does shit like that piled atop other shit like that just kinda obscure the view? for a bio of this nature, ya gotta streamline or possess a novelist's powers of narration. bauer didn't; bauer doesn't. i wanted to push through and tag it with 3 stars simply b/c bauer's writing about some obscure dude who was prez for 16 months and there's something admirable about all the thankless work & research that goes into something like this. and bauer clearly did his homework. so no offense, jack bauer, i guess i'm just an MTV baby and don't have the patience. it's the way of the world. i told myself, when possible, i was gonna read proper biographies and wasn't gonna mess with that 'american president' series*, but bauer and taylor have beaten me into submission.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-10-22 00:00:00 GREGORY MILLER A straightforward and well-researched biography of Taylor. Bauer admits that Taylor’s military career was “mundane and boring,” but he ably describes how Taylor’s military career enhanced his political prospects, how it was affected by the press, and how as president Taylor, despite being petty and somewhat witless, grew more independent and assertive than the Whig establishment had estimated. There is little on his personal life, but only due to the lack of material we have. The narrative is a bit dull, often due to Taylor’s mediocre personality. Bauer does develop his ideas clearly and keeps the reader as engaged as he can, but the book does remain rather flat, there often isn't much insight, and the minutiae can get mind-numbing. A lot of people are also introduced without much background. Some better maps would have helped. There are also a few typos or jumbled-up sentences. A solid but somewhat bland biography.
