The Warburgs: The Twentieth-Century Odyssey of a Remarkable Jewish Family by Ron Chernow

3.0

Chernow is a brilliant biographer, and The Warburgs definitely showcases his meticulous, easy narrative style.

The challenge with documenting an entire family is that the characters over 4 generations are increasingly difficult to keep track of. There is also so much information that, in this case, it would have been better to trim some and tighten up the narrative.
