Please follow the structure of the free responses which is [title of the book - author - person who the biography is about].

  • If there is an error on the name of the biography, the author, or the person who the biography is about, it does not count.

  • Shortcuts can be accepted, but it is better to stick to the name of the biography displayed in Wikipedia.

  • One biography per answer.

Will resolve YES on the biography with the most votes on a poll (from January 2nd to January 14th 2024) I'll run after market closes. The poll will have the options of the market which is a biography.

A biography is a book or writings about a person that existed or exist and describes this person's life. By writings, I accept letters and by life, I accept that it is some parts of a life of a person (for example Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!).

If ambiguity, ask in the comments and if there is a disagreement between people, I'll decide to include it or not.
