A beautiful American girl, Daisy Miller, is pursued by the sophisticated Winterbourne, who moves in fairly conservative circles. Their courtship is frowned upon by the other Americans they meet in Switzerland and Italy because Daisy is too vivacious and flirtatious and neither belongs to, nor follows the rules of, their society. The novella is a comment on American and European attitudes towards each other and on social and cultural prejudice.

Series statement on cover; all vols. of this 35 vol. set lack vol. numbers; the full series statement appears as advert. in vols. 4, 5, 16, and 19
"The text used in this issue is that of the 'New York' edition, and the critical prefaces written for that series are retained in the volumes to which they refer. While ... many stories were omitted from the 'New York' edition, ... the present edition contains all the fiction that he published in book-form during his life. The only writings which have been excluded are a small number of very early pieces, contributed to magazines and never reprinted, and the plays."--Advert. in v. 4
