This three-volume reference for middle- and high-school students describes the lives and works of 250 authors whose books are appropriate for young adults. The authors covered range from those successful in the field of young adult fiction, such as Joan Abelove, to those writing for adults, such as Amy Tan and William Faulkner. Each entry includes a discussion of the author's life and works, the works recommended for young readers, and an official or useful website when available. Sidebars describing movie adaptations, professions and literary awards and explaining concepts, terms and topics encountered in the author essays appear on nearly every page. Maps and color photographs of places such as the Royal Shakespeare Theatre and the House of Seven Gables are interspersed throughout the volumes. Each essay carries the byline of the academic, librarian or independent scholar who wrote it. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

reviewed Cyclopedia of Young Adult Authors, Vol. 3 on November 22, 2018 Cyclopedia of Young Adult Authors, Vol. 3
This book was the foundation for my term paper on marginalia. It is the definitive work on the subject, filled with fascinating anecdotes and analysis. It is, however, short on statistics or data analysis (admittedly so). I recommend it for anyone interested in the history of books or the history of reading. You'll be engrossed!
