Perhaps the definitive account of James, Sr. You have to have a taste for both James and the author's thought processes, but if you are intellectually adventurous, the book will richly repay the reading. For insights on Swedenborgian theology, and copious documentation on Sr,'s profoundly anti-institutional ecclesiology, I am eternally grateful. Always supremely confident in his own abilities, if Henry James, Sr. were alive today, well, that'd just be absolutely insane. You should read this book.
