Industry Reviews "Within his published works and outside them, there was never a more thinking novelist. Because he cared about living people, and not only as material for fiction, the best of his sympathy gets into the letters too. No further justification is needed for HENRY JAMES: A LIFE IN LETTERS...." Bromwich
"Rather than imposing his own viewpoint on his material, [Horne] allows James himself to reveal his evolution as a writer. And a fascinating evolution it is....[Horne's] work is less biography than exceptionally well-annotated reference." Nolan
"[I]t is for those who begin at the beginning that this book will best illuminate how James's magnificently rolling epistolary style--with its protestations, its exuberances, its equivocations--can at any moment signify so little and so much." New York Times Book Review - Renee Tursi (12/12/1999)
"An uneven volume....But MAISIE is not to be missed." Kirkus Reviews (01/15/2003)
