Sixteen Modern American Authors: A Survey of Research and Criticism

"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"
"An indispensable research took (has) maintained and even increased its indispensability. No reference department of any college library should be without this latest revision."--"Choice"
