Book Synopsis
Charts the Anglophilia that emerged after the American Revolution and remains in the character of US society and class, the style of academic life, and the idea of American intellectualism. This work traces the wideranging effects of Anglophilia on American literature, art, and intellectual life in the early nineteenth century.

Trade Review
"Anglophilia takes a commonsensical subject - nineteenth-century adulation for and emulation of British culture - and shows us both why it doesn't mean what we thought and why it's worthy of closer study and more careful attention. This is a rare gem of a book: commandingly scholarly, interdisciplinary, original, arresting in its analyses, and utterly worthwhile in its arguments." - Dana Nelson, Vanderbilt University"
