An Annotated Guide to the Writings and Papers of Leonard Woolf: (Clemson University Press w/ LUP)

This book describes inductively Leonard Woolf ’s career as a writer. From novels and political studies to shorter journalism and criticism, his published work is enumerated here in detail. His signed and unsigned articles as literary editor of The Nation and The Athenaeum (London) and editor of The Political Quarterly (Oxford) are featured, as well as an indexed, selected list of political books in his library. Brief accounts of reviewing are also given in appendices derived from Women in the Milieu of Leonard and Virginia Woolf (eds. Chapman and Manson, 1998), from Virginia Woolf and Her Influences (eds. Laura Davis-Clapper and Jeanette McVicker, 1998), and from The South Carolina Review 31.1 (fall 1998). References are provided to facilitate research in relevant archives and online publications such as the short-title catalog of the library of Leonard and Virginia Woolf at Washington State University.
