- "'Theodore Dreiser: His World and His Novels' is primarily a critical study of Dreiser's novels. My concern is with the genesis and evolution of the novels, their pattern, and their meaning. In order to focus on the meaning, I have examined some of the influences which most shaped Dreiser's imagination - especially his family, the city, his work as a journalist and free-lance writer, his reading, and his reaction to the politics and the scientific ideas of his times."--Caveat to the Reader.
