Editorial Reviews

This third volume completes the letters between the brothers William (1842-1910) and Henry (1843-1916). It encompasses their most productive years, when William was engaged in the monumental task of writing The Varieties of Religious Experience, and Henry was writing such late masterpieces as "The Turn of the Screw," The Wings of the Dove, The Ambassadors, The Golden Bowl, and "The Jolly Corner."
