"As God Made Them; Portraits of Some Nineteenth-Century Americans" is a masterful collection of biographical sketches that delves into the lives of prominent 19th-century American figures. Utilizing his signature "psychographic" approach, Gamaliel Bradford explores the inner character and psychological depths of seven influential men: Daniel Webster, Henry Clay, John C. Calhoun, Horace Greeley, Edwin Booth, Francis James Child, and Asa Gray.

Rather than a traditional historical account, this work focuses on the human essence of its subjects, presenting them with all their complexities and contradictions. Bradford examines private correspondence and personal anecdotes to paint vivid, intimate portraits that transcend mere chronology. From the political maneuvering of the great orators to the artistic and intellectual pursuits of scholars and actors, the book captures the spirit of a century through the individuals who defined it.

"As God Made Them" remains a significant contribution to the art of biography, offering a profound reflection on the nature of personality and the historical forces that shaped the American identity. It is an essential read for those interested in the human side of history and the development of the American character during a pivotal era.
