Young Henry James 1843-1870 is a book written by Robert C. Le Clair that provides a comprehensive account of the early life and career of one of the most celebrated American writers of the 19th century, Henry James. The book covers the period from James' birth in 1843 to the end of the Civil War in 1870, during which time he grew up in a wealthy family, traveled extensively in Europe, and began his literary career. Le Clair draws on a range of primary sources, including James' letters, diaries, and other personal writings, as well as contemporary accounts and historical records, to offer a vivid and detailed portrait of the young writer. The book explores James' family background, his education, his early literary influences, and his travels in Europe, which had a profound impact on his writing and worldview. In addition to tracing James' personal and intellectual development, the book also provides a rich cultural and historical context for his work, examining the literary and artistic movements of the time, as well as the political and social issues that shaped James' world. Le Clair's engaging prose and insightful analysis make this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the life and work of Henry James, as well as the broader cultural and intellectual history of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
