Description: Form and History in American Literary Naturalism
Review Quotes: "Given the amount of existing scholarship on American literary naturalism, there would seem little left to be said; yet June Howard's approach is fresh, original, perceptive, and very informative. . . . She insists, rightly, that class, race, and gender demand attention in the study of American society and American literature; but she is not dogmatic, she is shrewd in her analyses and judgments, and she writes with a blessed clarity, vigor, and wit. This stands with the best books on its subject." -- Walter B. Rideout, University of Wisconsin-Madison
