A friend is working on a paper about Mark Twain and James (that's
Henry, not Jesse). He has asked me to forward this question to the
Forum: Beyond the standard biographies of both men and the "Turn East,
Turn West" book, is there a significant work examining what Twain felt
about James and James felt about Twain? He has found an intriguing 1910
essay about them -- "Two Frontiersmen" -- but is hoping for something a
tad more recent.
He knows of the infamous shot Twain took at "The Bostonians" in the
1885 letter to Howells, and he knows about their scattered meetings. Any
suggestions?
