Henry_James

Henry James “Presently a small boy came walking along the path--an urchin of nine or ten. The child, who was diminutive for his years, had an aged expression of countenance, a pale complexion, and sharp little features. He was dressed in knickerbockers, with red stockings, which displayed his poor little spindle-shanks; he also wore a brilliant red cravat.(Daisy Miller by Henry James pg.3).With great character descriptions like this no wonder he was one of the greatest writers in his time.
