Charles Capper draws fully on first-hand sources to paint a compelling portrait of the private life of Margaret Fuller, the organizer of the Dial (the journal of the the Transcendental movement) and an important figure in early American literature. This is the first of a two-volume biography.
Charles Capper is Associate Professor of History at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He is co-editor of The American Intellectual Tradition.
Now, at last, we have the benefit of a well crafted modern biography.
