Constructing American Lives: Biography and Culture in Nineteenth-Century America New edition

A study of how Americans wrote, published and read biographies and how their conceptions of the genre changed over the 19th century. It also reveals disputes over the meaning of character, the definition of US history, and the place of US literary practices in a transatlantic world of letters.
