To commemorate the centenary of the birth of Henry James, noted novelist and essayist, the Houghton Rare Book Libray has drawn from its own extensive collections and those of College alumni many of the author's scarce and valuable books and manuscripts, and prepared one of the most complete exhibitions ever shown of Jame's unpublished and printed material.
Demonstrating the variety of James' writing, first editions of his novels, short stories, essays and plays are on exhibition. Rare editions of his plays which were printed only for use by the cast, many of them with annotations and corrections by James, are shown.
The outstanding feature of the exhibition is the presentation of many of the extremely rare James's manuscripts.
