A quiet, attentive observer of people and places, Henry James's English Hours returns with a fresh sense of urgency and grace. A gateway to a vanished world, it invites readers to move through essay, travel writing, and nonfiction prose with the same exacting eye James brought to English society. This collection offers more than reminiscence: it is a vivid map of fin de siecle culture, tracing edwardian england from sprawling London drawing rooms to quiet provinces. Its pages mingle cultural observation with sharp social analysis, revealing the interactions, manners, and tensions that shaped daily life. For the literary student and the general reader alike, it presents a lucid portrait of English society-its habits, aspirations, and contradictions-crafted with elegance, readability, and a quietly modern sensibility. Alpha Editions is honoured to bring these essays back into the light. Out of print for decades, they have been restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint, English Hours is a collectors edition and a cultural treasure-a rare, illustrated edition that will appeal to collectors and casual readers who seek depth without pretension. Whether you study London and provinces, or simply enjoy finely observed travel writing, this book invites you to linger, reflect, and see English life anew.
