To date, no comprehensive biography of Euler exists in English. (For a list of what biographical resources
are available, see our resources page.)
Nevertheless, several good short accounts of Euler's life have been written. One of the
best is this biography by
John Glaus and Ron Calinger, published on the
Swiss Society of Boston web page.
Additionally, The Euler Archive is forutnate to have available two lengthy eulogies of Euler published shortly
after his death. Both were published originally in French, and both have been translated
by John S D Glaus of the Euler Society. Glaus
has kindly allowed the Euler Archive to publish his translations here.
