Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: near fine. First edition. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. Fine in near fine dust jacket with a tiny chip top edge of front panel. 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.

Wharton was an enormous admirer of James and had sought for over a decade to befriend him. Though her first impressions on him failed to catch the attention of the well-known writer 20 years her senior, James eventually came around and grew to admire Wharton. James would eventually send her a letter on October 26, 1900, which sparked a lifelong friendship. Unlike Wharton, James did not have the deep knowledge of New York society or American rural life which nourished her work and made her the chronicler of an age. Because of his childhood spent in Europe and his subsequent exile in England, he lacked her ability to write with accuracy about the sophisticated and restricted life of the rich in old New York as she did. Thus James grew to admire Wharton and wonder at her energy. Ref V 5.
