Daisy Miller: A Study

Complete and unabridged, with 44 full-page plates by George Inness, John Frederick Kensett and Giovanni Paolo Panini. A pretty American girl in Switzerland walks out alone with an Italian and cannot see why the expatriate ladies stop calling. James called it a study, and studied exactly one question: whether she is innocent or careless, and whether the difference matters to a society that has already decided. It made him famous and offended half of Boston. Forty-four landscape plates by painters including Calame and Inness follow the story from Alpine lakes to the Boston Public Garden, matching the scenery of Daisy's travels with the places that judge her.
