The Greenhaven Press Literary Companion series is described thus on the back covers: This unique anthology series provides an accessible resource for students researching America's and the world's greatest literary lives and works. Every book contains an in-depth biography of the literary figure in question. Contributing writers' essays are taken from a variety of sources and are expertly edited to accommodate the reading and comprehension levels of young adults; each essay is introduced by a concise summation of the contributing author's themes and insights. Additional features of each book include an annotated table of contents to enhance comprehension and facilitate research, a chronology of the author's life and career as well as of concurrent historical events, and primary and secondary bibliographies offering a gateway to further research. I will probably assign each book in this series to a separate reviewer; please let me know if one title particularly interests you. As usual, the review must be of publishable quality, and it would be due within two months of your receipt of the book (i.e., due early-October 1999). The deadline is particularly important, as we are making every effort for Forum reviews to appear before print reviews. If you are inclined to procrastinate, please don't offer to review the book. If you would like to see the general content and style of Forum book reviews, please browse the reviews page at TwainWeb: http://web.mit.edu/linguistics/www/forum/reviews/ A link to the style sheet is at the bottom of the reviews page. If you're interested in writing a review, please send me both your home and institutional mailing addresses and phone numbers. If I don't know you already, it would be helpful for you to explain in what respect you're qualified to write the review. (If we haven't exchanged e-mail recently, it might be a good idea for you to remind me of this info.) I look forward to hearing from you. Taylor Roberts Book review editor, Mark Twain Forum
