OG-139 The extraordinary diary of William Lyon Mackenzie King, prime minister of Canada for over twenty years, revealed that this most bland and circumspect of men was a mystic guided in both public and private life by omens, messages received at seances, and signs from heaven.

this most bland and circumspect of men was a mystic
这是种什么用法啊，bland和circumspect 都是形容词啊
我的理解应该是this most bland and circumspect men was 。。。。

是不是我理解错了，能否解释解释这样的用法，谢谢

this most bland and circumspect在这里是men中的一个最...的人, 名词性短语的省略,因为中心词是man, 可以从后面的of men中毫无歧异的得出,所以省略. 补充出来是: this most bland and circumspect man of men was...
