Toward the end of Henry James's career, Charles Scribner's Sons
offered him the opportunity to publish his collected works in a
single edition under the overall title The New York Edition of the
Novels and Tales of Henry James (1907-1909). Rather than simply
reprint his fictional oeuvre, James entered into a massive work of
self-monumentalization: revising the texts extensively; writing
prefaces that have become classic texts on prose aesthetics and the
novelist's art; and omitting many works, among them some major
novels. The thirty illustrations include all twenty-four
frontispiece photographs made, under James's supervision, for the
edition.
