The difference is his luminous imagination, as Henry Steele Commager observes in the introduction to the newest Horgan volume, Of America East \u0026amp; West, a sumptuous selection from fifteen of the earlier works, many of which have been long out of print. I began reading Paul Horgan more than twenty years ago and he has given me no end of pleasure ever since. Whether in fiction, history or biography, he is a writer of large vision and manysidedness. He can be serene, funny, elegant, earthy and lyrical. He can range across art, opera, politics, natural history, military history and intellectual history. Narrative energy suffuses everything he writes. But it is his gift of empathy that lifts his work to the level of art and gives the history he writes 'reality.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaul Horgan is the author of \"Lamy of Santa Fe\" (1975), \"Of America East and West\" (1985), \"Rome Eternal\" (1959), \"Saintmaker's Christmas Eve\" (1955), \"Songs After Lincoln\" (1965), and \"Toby and the Nighttime\" (1963).\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 393\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.93 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 01, 1985\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47570888655069,"sku":"9780374518967","price":33.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/KSHmQNX1Te9780374518967.webp?v=1773363885","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/of-america-east-west-selections-from-the-writings-of-paul-horgan-paperback","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
