The Atlantic Monthly And Its Makers is a comprehensive historical account of the famous American literary magazine, The Atlantic Monthly, and the individuals who helped shape its legacy. Written by M.A. DeWolfe Howe, a prominent literary critic and editor, the book chronicles the magazine's founding in 1857 by a group of prominent writers and intellectuals, including Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and its subsequent evolution into one of the most influential literary publications in the United States. Howe provides fascinating insights into the personalities and creative processes of some of the magazine's most notable contributors, including Nathaniel Hawthorne, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Mark Twain, and Henry James. He also explores the magazine's role in shaping American intellectual and literary culture, particularly during the tumultuous period leading up to and following the Civil War. The Atlantic Monthly And Its Makers is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of American literature and the development of literary magazines in the United States. It is a well-researched and engaging account that offers valuable insights into the creative and intellectual landscape of 19th-century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
