The Aestivation of Henry Adams

The Aestivation of Henry Adams records the struggle of Bostonian Henry Adams (nonfiction) (1838–1918), in his later years, to come to terms with the dawning 20th century, so different from the world of his youth. It is also a sharp critique of the 19th century work ethic.
