"Why in thunder should anyone want to write a biography of R. S.?" a friend asks the author of As I Remember Him: "[W]hen he died, the world had no unusual reasons to mourn him." "R. S.," as Zinsser never acknowledges in this book, is Zinsser himself. The initials stood for "Romantic Soul," which is how he sometimes referred to himself. As I Remember Him is one of the more unusual experiments in autobiography. The book is written in two voices: one of the unnamed author, the other of R. S. himself. The author sets R. S.' material in context or comments-not always positively-upon it. The book covers Zinsser's experiences as a German immigrant, his medical career, work with the Red Cross, and scientific achievements in bacteriology and immunology, particularly typhus, while offering personal reflections on life, science, and history. It won the National Book Award for Nonfiction in 1941. A clean very presentable copy.…
