Chart I
Volumes in Bibliography of American Literature were published over thirty-six years,
increasing the chances that a particular library may not own the entire set. When you check with an academic or
large public library about availability of the set, also ask what volumes they own. The following
list shows which part of the alphabet is in each of the nine volumes.
vol. 1. Henry Adams through Donn Byrne
vol. 2. George W. Cable through Timothy Dwight
vol. 3. Edward Eggleston through Bret Harte
vol. 4. Nathaniel Hawthorne through Joseph Holt Ingraham
vol. 5. Washington Irving through Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
vol. 6. Augustus Baldwin Longstreet through Thomas William Parsons
vol. 7. James Kirk Paulding through Frank Richard Stockton
