Edith Wharton called William C. Brownell “the most discerning literary critic of our day.” Noteworthy for its serious consideration of American literary expression, comparable with that of the English masters, this collection features studies of Poe, Henry James, Cooper, Hawthorne, and Emerson—showcasing Brownell’s astute literary expertise and elegant prose.
