Illustrated endpapers. xv+ 412 pp. with index. Authors Henry James and Edith Wharton maintained a correspondence that spanned the first fifteen years of the 20th century. It was the time when James entered his "major phase" with the publication of "The Wings of the Dove", "The Ambassadors", "The Golden Bowl" and the revised "Portrait of A Lady. Wharton's career blossomed equally during this period with "The House of Mirth", "Ethan Frome", and The Custom of the Country". Their letters are rich in the cultural history of the time and offer great insight into the personalities of these two American literary giants.
