Third book in the American Men of Letters Series. From the author's preface: "This critical biography tries to keep a balance between narrative and comment. The man is a comment upon his writings, as they are upon him. . . . The story of Hawthorne is so interesting, and somehow so touching, that one is tempted to forget the fact of his having been an author, though in his own opinion, he was only that."
