The American is the story of a self-made American millionaire, Christopher Newman, whose guilelessness and forthrightness are set in contrast to the arrogance and cunning of a family of French aristocrats, the Bellegardes, whose daughter he unsuccessfully seeks to marry. In 1868 Newman travels to Paris to submerge himself in European culture and find himself a wife. He courts Claire de Cintré, an aristocratic young widow, but he is deemed socially unacceptable by Claire's older brother and by her mother. Newman befriends Claire's younger brother, Valentin, who, on his deathbed, tells Newman how he can blackmail the family into approving the marriage with Claire, who has since joined a convent. Newman decides not to carry out his threat of blackmail, which nevertheless had failed to sway the Bellegardes' uncompromising allegiance to social class and family tradition.
