BIOGRAPHY FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

PREFACE

This list is intended as an aid in selecting children's books for libraries and also as a guide to parents and teachers. It is chiefly confined to books for children under 16 years old but as the age for which any book is suited depends on individual development some books intended for older readers are included. For high school girls and boys who wish more extended reading, some of the "American men of letters" series and more of the "Heroes of the nations" series than here included, such as Nelson, Gustavus Adolphus, Pericles, Theodoric, Cicero and Henry of Navarre, are recommended. With a few exceptions the Abbott biographic histories, though entertaining and containing a certain amount of desirable information, are omitted as too highly colored. But few of the many biographies published by educational firms for school use are included, as they are usually abridged or otherwise adapted to class work. The selection is purposely broad in order to cover as wide a field as possible with material suitable for all ages and to include information about books often quoted. As an aid in choosing from so large a number, a single star is used to designate books above the average and two stars to single out the best books in the list.

The letters a, b, c, have been prefixed to author's name to indicate broadly to what age a book is best adapted: a 12 to 16 years, b 8 to 12 years, c under 8 years.

Unsigned notes are by the compiler; sources of other notes are given whether condensed or quoted exactly. References following notes are to more extended reviews and notices.

ABBREVIATIONS

Abbreviations following main entries refer to the libraries in which the books were consulted. Call numbers (i. e. class and book number) are given for all books in the New York state library even though the edition differs from that described in the list; but class number only is given for books in the traveling collection. Books marked e have been personally examined, while e shows that the edition examined differs from that entered in the list. Volume and page numbers are separated by a colon; e. g. 16: 114 means v. 16, p. 114. Abbreviations not selfexplanatory are as follows:
