About this title

Synopsis

Pulitzer Prize winner Hamlin Garland, remembered today chiefly for his innovative collection of short stories, Main-Travelled Roads (1891), produced hundreds of books, articles, and pamphlets during his career. He was also a prolific correspondent. This bibliography includes all of Garland's published work, including books, short stories, contributions to periodicals and books, and articles that quote Garland extensively.

From the Publisher

"Hamlin Garland is variously described these days as a novelist, a short-story writer, a memoirist, and a theorist of realism. . . . it is fair to say that since his death in 1940 Garland has been largely disregarded by scholars and critics, and that in the last decade the disregard has been almost pointed. Of the half dozen books devoted wholly or in part to Hamlin Garland since 1990 all but two are theses or dissertations. Only Keith Newlin with this bibliography . . .has attempted to break the silence. . . . Newlin's 'Hamlin Garland: A Bibliography' is a good first step in bringing the writer back into fashion. It's thorough, accurate, useful, and clearly organized. . . ."--AEB
