Alice James was the youngest child and only girl in a family that produced two of the most brilliant individuals in 19th-century America. Her story reveals a fascinating, troubled, highly intelligent woman who struggled to extract a sense of meaning and self from a life that had every outward appearance of failure. She was articulate, politically radical, funny, wise, difficult, and intensely involved with her brothers and friends.
