In any group of men I have ever known, speaking from the point of view of character and not that of physical appearance, Peter would stand out as deliciously and irrefutably different. In the great waste of American intellectual dreariness he was an oasis, a veritable spring in the desert. He understood life. He knew men. He was free—spiritually, morally, in a thousand ways, it seemed to me. As one drags along through this inexplicable existence one realizes how such qualities stand out; not the pseudo freedom of strong men, financially or physically, but the real, internal, spiritual freedom, where the mind, as it were, stands up and looks at itself, faces Nature unafraid, is aware of its own weaknesses, its strengths; examines its own and the creative impulses of the universe and of men with a kindly and non-dogmatic eye, in fact kicks dogma out of doors, and yet deliberately and of choice holds fast to many, many simple and human things, and rounds out life, or would, in a natural, normal, courageous, healthy way.

I enjoyed this non-fiction book by Theodore Drieser. It tells about twelve vastly different people who had some kind of lasting effect on him and his life. I found it particularly telling that at least two or three of his novels are based very closely on real life events and people he knew. If you are a fan of Mr. Drieser, you would probably enjoy the insight you get from reading this book.By the way, his brother wrote the Indiana state song using some casual suggestions from Mr. Drieser.
