Excerpt from The Authors Club: An Historical Sketch
Hawthorne, Prescott, Motley, Thoreau, Emerson, and Aldrich. Howells, editor of The Atlantic from 1871 to 1882, might be classed with them, and James, with his Harvard training, was more of Boston than of his birthplace. New York could claim only Cooper, Irving, and Bryant of the older order, and Bayard Taylor and Stedman of the younger.
