Review by Horn Book Review

These lackluster biographies, illustrated with photos, archival reproductions, and paintings, focus on the artist's life and the historical events influencing his art. The volumes are inconsistent in quality+Dahl stands above the others while Shakespeare is marred by errors. Reading list, timeline. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Famous Lives titles: Elvis Presley, Roald Dahl, William Shakespeare, and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.] (c) Copyright 2010.
