About this ebook
What is the true American identity?
This question, still relevant today, was a core issue in the 19th century art and literature. In "Point of View", Henry James is searching for an answer deep into the hearts and minds of his characters.

Henry James (1843 – 1916) is regarded one of the greatest novelists in the English language.
