Stephen Decatur biographical sketch review
Cyrus Townsend Brady writes a concise life of Stephen Decatur for Beacon Biographies, fair but not a portrait. Brady’s seas stories tone clashes with biographical depth and his style veers theatrical at times. The Rostand piece is a light, amusing comedy in translation by Mary Hendee.
