The Cambridge History of the American Novel
"This ambitious literary history traces the American novel from its emergence in the late eighteenth century to its diverse incarnations in the multi-ethnic, multi-media culture of the present day.

Rick Tilman sums up decades of scholarship by noting that "no consensus now exists on the value or eve…
