This is a short-title checklist on some 1,300 authors, each entry of which comprises brief biographical notes, bibliographical references, an index of titles and a checklist of books with their first publication date. Its main aim is to offer librarians, booksellers and researchers a finding tool for those authors currently in demand whether meritorious or meretricious. It brings together in a single volume, for the first time, a broad selection of English-speaking writers publishing between 1940 and 1970. It serves as a comprehensive reference tool for British and American authors, while its real usefulness lies in the obscure entries for Africa, Australasia and the Third World where source material takes a great deal of researching and very few published bibliographies existMyers, Robin is the author of 'Dictionary of Literature in the English Language: From 1940-1970 - Robin Myers - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780080180502 and ISBN 0080180507.
