ADVANCE PRAISE FOR

The Collected Letters of Henry Northrup Castle:

“I am delighted to learn that The Collected Letters of Henry Northrup Castle, originally prepared for limited distribution in 1902 by Castle’s sister and brother-in-law (Helen Castle Mead and George Herbert Mead), will be made available to a much wider audience by Ohio University Press.

“Henry Castle, who died tragically in an accident at sea when he was in his early thirties, exerted a strong influence upon the early intellectual development of the American philosopher and social psychologist, George Herbert Mead, during their shared days as students at Oberlin College, Harvard, and Leipzig University. He was also a gifted writer whose letters shed light upon contemporary political events during his brief career as a newspaperman in Honolulu.

“Alfred L. Castle deserves great credit for making possible the republication of these letters and for writing an elegant introduction in which he clearly outlines their historical significance.”

—Gary A. Cook, Emeritus Professor of Philosophy,

Beloit College, and author of George Herbert Mead: The Making of a Social Pragmatist
