Additional features of the book include a descriptive and analytic bibliography, including publishing history, editions, controversy, and critical analysis for the various entries, as well as a discussion of Wolfe scholars and scholarship. A helpful, quick-reference glossary of characters and places in Wolfe's works is included, as well as a series of useful geneological charts of fictional characters and corresponding real-life family members. Comprehensive appendices of information sources and secondary works complete the text.

Book Description
Praise for the earlier edition: "Students of modern American literature have for some years turned to Fifteen Modern American Authors (1969) as an indispensable guide to significant scholarship and criticism about twentieth-century American writers. In its new form--Sixteenth Modern American Authors--it will continue to be indispensable. If it is not a desk-book for all Americanists, it is a book to be kept in the forefront of the bibliographical compartment of their brains."--American Studies
