The Ambassadors: A Norton Critical Edition » (2nd Edition)

Henry James was a master at tracing the social boundaries of the Gilded Age -- between Old and New World, Europe and America, desire and convention, men and women. He brought an invaluably clear-eyed, and critical, sensibility to America's evolving cultural mores.

This revised and expanded Norton Critical Edition of The Ambassadors
again includes the author's preface as well as the most significant variants of the three earlier editions of the novel published in James's lifetime.
