This 1996 book argues that Henry James's work exemplifies the complex role literature plays in the formation of broadly racial, national and cultural identities in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Blair delineates the complexity of his engagement with emergent cultural rituals through which American values are being forged.
