This edition includes a modern introduction and a list of suggested further reading.The Education of Henry Adams, written by Americas greatest historian and heir to Americas first political family, was greeted on its posthumous release as the finest of American autobiographies. For a century it has been routinely characterized as one of world literatures extraordinary life narratives. However, The Education isnt truly a work of autobiography. It is a meditation on a life formed by a family tradition that wraps itself around a cultural critique of the age, and around speculations on a philosophy of history.
