Synopsis
Lawrence's essays on American writers--including Franklin, Hawthorne, and Whitman--are inventive, illuminating, brilliant, and decidedly eccentric. While they were in progress, he described them to a friend as "a thrilling blood-and-thunder, your-money-or-your-life kind of thing: hands up America!" They were published in the English Review in 1918 and 1919 and appeared in book form in 1923.

Industry Reviews
"The genius of STUDIES IN CLASSIC AMERICAN LITERATURE is not in the knowledge it provides on the books under discussion; indeed, its often eccentric judgements can and have been contested. Rather, D. H. Lawrence's is a brilliant and necessary book because it opens up familiar texts, reminding us that the best literary criticism is always, in the end, both evaluative and engaged."
Times Literary Supplement - Marjorie Perloff (03/12/2004)

"[A] book of megalomaniac ambition which offers brilliant insights....As always, the style of the book is characterized by Lawrence's willingness to offend."
New York Review of Books - Tim Parks (09/25/2003)
