HENRY
JAMES:
THE UNTRIED YEARS
1843 - 1870
By LEON EDEL
Editor of
The Complete Plays of Henry J ames
More than twenty years of close
study have qualified Mr. Edel as our
foremost authority on Henry lames.
This volume -
the first and only
complete account of James' childhood
and youth - brilliantly confirms that
reputation. Informed and fascinating,
it will be treasured by
all
readers of
James's work, on which, as Edmund
Wilson wrote some years ago "Mr.
Edel is probably now the foremost
authority.)
