Frontis photo of Henry James, taken in 1905. brother of William James, Henry was one of the master stylists of the English novel, often thought of as having lived a life of total absorption in his craft, a life without significant outward events. But James, who combined rare qualities of aloofness and participation, of detachment and alert curiosity, was a man upon whom few experiences and observations were lost. After a restless transatlantic childhood and a brief residence in France, James settled in England, where he became one of the most traveled and sociable writers of his time. . 128 pp. including index. Begins with the story of his grandfather who emigrated from Ireland to New York in 1789.
