Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Wrong author I have been a fan of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. for many years. As of the time of this posting (3/07), Amazon has the biography of his FATHER as the author. OWH, Senior was an important American doctor and man of letters. His SON, the author of these letters, was a civil war veteran, twice wounded, who went on to become possibly the greatest of all American lawyers and judges.
