Have you met DiogenesLamp? He believes biographers all lie about their subjects, too.
Which biographers discuss frankly GEN Grants years as a CRUEL slave-overseer, addiction to morphia (as a result of having his hip broken before TWBTS) & his alcoholism??
None of them. I assume for the same reason why none of them talk about all his many slaves?
As a general rule, biographers PREFER whitewashing their subjects.
Yep, you and DiogenesLamp sure do have a lot in common. Y'all ought to get together for beers some time.
Not at all. Just biographers that deal with a historical Icon about which so many people are emotionally involved, especially if they come from a region of the country that very much wants to justify what this particular Icon did.
Of the biographers you mentioned in the past, they seem to all be from the Northern states.
I know the ones I bothered to look up were from Northern states. Why would they say or do anything that would be disapproved by their peers?
Did you notice Comey couldn't find any wrongdoing by Hillary? *That* is how this works.
