(Updike, John) De Bellis, Jack & Michael Broomfield JOHN UPDIKE: A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF PRIMARY AND SECONDARY MATERIALS, 1948-2007
With "Foreword to my own Bibliography" by John Updike and a CD Supplement New Castle, Delaware Oak Knoll Press 2007 8.5 x 11 inches hardcover, dust jacket 624 pages (plus 359 pages on CD-ROM)
First Edition. John Updike is internationally renowned for his novels, short stories, poems, essays and criticism. He has won two Pulitzers, the National Book Award, the American Book Award, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and many other prizes. Updike has written a "Foreword to My Own Bibliography" especially for this book.
This definitive guide to materials by and about this prolific American author consists of a printed first volume and a second volume on CD (a first for Oak Knoll Press). The A and B sections of Volume I, concerning separately printed works by Updike and books to which he has contributed, are superb examples of descriptive bibliography. The printed volume also features over 500 grayscale images of book covers, jackets, broadsides, and many seldom seen items. It includes comprehensive listings of Updike's short fiction, poems, articles, essays, and reviews, as well as extensive documentation of letters, speeches, dramatic works, manuscripts, interviews, and blurbs. Volume II contains entries for material about Updike and his work (reviews, commentary, and theses), several appendices (media appearances, work read by others, works in translation, exhibits and catalogs), and full-color versions of images appearing in the printed volume. John Updike: a Bibliography of Primary and Secondary Materials, 1948-2007 provides an indispensable guide to Updike's work and commentary about it.
Jack De Bellis, professor emeritus of English (Lehigh University), has authored The John Updike Encyclopedia (2000) and John Updike: Critical Responses to the "Rabbit" Saga (2004), as well as several essays and reviews concerning Updike's novels. This bibliography greatly expands his 1994 compilation for Greenwood Press. De Bellis has also published two books on the poet Sidney Lanier, and articles on writers ranging from Shakespeare to Ken Kesey, and from F. Scott Fitzgerald to Truman Capote. His first published work, on Andrew Lytle, was a bibliography. De Bellis was a Fulbright scholar to the University of Toulouse in France. He lives with his wife in Allentown, Pennsylvania, near Philadelphia where he was born.
Michael Broomfield, a corporate lawyer by profession, has become, over the past 40 years, a preeminent collector of first editions and other materials by a number of American writers, including Raymond Carver, E.E. Cummings, William Faulkner, Joseph Heller, Robinson Jeffers and many living authors. Collecting work in many forms, Broomfield displays remarkable attention to detail and an acute understanding of the complexities of editions. He has what is probably the most extensive private collection of John Updike materials. This bibliography is Broomfield's first book. He lives in New York City with his wife and their daughter.

Van Devanter, Willis FIFTY-FIVE BOOKS PRINTED BEFORE 1525: REPRESENTING THE WORKS OF ENGLAND'S FIRST PRINTERS
New York The Grolier Club 1968 7 x 10 inches hardcover 62 pages
This book presents fifty-five works from England's first printers including William Caxton, Schoolmaster Printer, Theodoricus Rood, the Eponymous Press, and others. William Caxton, England's first printer and a savvy business man whose books were thoroughly enjoyed, is represented by fifteen examples of his work. By the time of his death, his works had established the character of modern English. With three of their publications represented here, St. Albans press, or "schoolmaster printer", was the first in England to print in more than one color. In addition, the printer of Siege of Rhodes, Julian Notary, and the Honorable Sir Arthur Howard are also showcased. All the books presented in this catalogue display the cross between English printing and publishing on the threshold of Elizabethan literature.

Arranged by printer, the order follows that of Robert Proctor in An Index of Early Printed Books in the British Museum. Collations, provenance, and imperfections are noted, and eight pages of plates and a list of authorities are cited. It was produced to accompany the exhibition held at the Grolier Club from January 17 to March 3, 1968. Works are from the collection of Paul Mellon.

(Vidal, Gore) Abbott, Steven. GORE VIDAL: A BIBLIOGRAPHY, 1940-2009.
New Castle, Delaware Oak Knoll Press 2009 8.5 x 11 inches Hardcover, dust jacket, with CD-ROM containing text and images 516 pages plus 120 pages on CD-ROM
First edition. Gore Vidal, a twentieth-century Renaissance man, was described in the Citation for the 1993 National Book Award as "a masterly, learned, and percipient observer of an unparalleled range of subjects" which he addressed "with an artist's resonant appreciation, a scholar's conscience and the persuasive powers of a great essayist."

In 1948, Vidal wrote the groundbreaking novel The City and the Pillar. He is the undisputed master of the historical novel through Creation, Julian, and his American Chronicle series and is equally well-known for his inventive novels, including Myra Breckinridge and Duluth. In 2002, Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace: How We Got To Be So Hated was an international best seller critiquing U.S. foreign policy. Vidal is a powerful voice interpreting and critiquing our world with insight, originality, and scholarship, often resulting in thought-provoking controversy.

This bibliography documents all phases of Vidal's ongoing remarkable work. It focuses on Gore Vidal as a writer from 1940 through June, 2009. In two volumes (second on CD), this is the definitive, comprehensive, and descriptive bibliography of his work and is a valuable reference book for libraries, collectors, scholars, booksellers, and Vidalophiles.

The book is organized in user-friendly sections, of which the A (Books and Pamphlets), B (Contributions to Books and Pamphlets), and D (Foreign Language Translations of Books) Sections identify, with detailed descriptions, Vidal's books, significant textual variations within a title by comparing different editions of a book, books and pamphlets with contributions by him and foreign translations in more than 30 languages, with full bibliographic citations of the books in French, Italian, and Spanish. More than 400 of his contributions to periodicals are listed and cross-referenced to their reappearances in books, collections, and anthologies. Also included are selected interviews with Vidal. His screenplays for film and television, both original writings and adaptations, are included, as are web postings and podcasts of essays, comments, excerpts, and reviews.

The Appendices include a chronology of Vidal's life, a table of essay titles (including title changes), a table of Vidal's small press appearances, a selection of critical works about him and his oeuvre, and a listing of Vidal's work as an actor. More than 650 images of the covers and title pages of a wide selection of Vidal's books are included in grayscale in Volume I, and more than 1400 in color on the accompanying CD-ROM.

Through this bibliography, scholars and readers interested in literature, social commentary, sexuality, media, religion, history, politics, and public life have a valuable tool for research on one of the Modern Era's most celebrated authors.

Steven Abbott has a master's degree in library science from Simmons College. He first met Gore Vidal when he interviewed him in Boston in 1973. Throughout the years, Abbott has built a definitive Vidal collection that is the foundation of this bibliography. At Vidal's direction, while researching this bibliography, Abbott located the original manuscript of Creation, which was then published as Creation: Restored Edition. Vidal generously authorized Abbott's access to his literary archives, agents, publishers and personal library in Ravello, Italy.

(Village Press) Cary, Melbert B. A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE VILLAGE PRESS.
Including an Account of the Genesis of the Press by Frederic W. Goudy and a Portion of the 1903 Diary of Will Ransom, Co-Founder. New Castle, DE Oak Knoll et al 1981 8vo. cloth, dust jacket. 220 pages.
This bibliography documents the career of the Village Press with meticulous detail and insight. In a short memoir at the beginning of this book, Frederic W. Goudy gives an account of a printer's life that is certain to be familiar to anyone who has experienced the "fun and fury" of a private press. The section from the diary of Will Ransom, co-founder of the press, gives some idea of the magnitude of the initial problems that were encountered. Despite these difficulties, the press still produced books that were an able tribute to William Morris, in many ways Goudy's chief inspiration in book design. However, the press was no mere imitation of the Kelmscott Press - in the years of its operation it forged a style that was distinctly Goudy's. Frederic W. Goudy was one of the most influential type designers of the twentieth century. His influence on advertising art and book design was considerable, and he became an arbiter of typographic taste for an entire generation between the Wars. Part of the reason for this success lay with his practical knowledge of the problems of designer and printer. Much of this expertise was gained through the Village Press. This book was originally published in 1938 in a limited edition of only 260 copies.

(Virgil) Kallendorf, Craig A CATALOGUE OF THE JUNIUS SPENCER MORGAN COLLECTION OF VIRGIL IN THE PRINCETON UNIVERSITY LIBRARY.
New Castle, Delaware Oak Knoll Press 2009 8.5 x 11 inches hardcover, dust jacket 544 pages
The Junius Spencer Morgan collection at Princeton University consists of over 700 titles (totaling around 900 volumes) of editions of the Roman poet Virgil (70-19 BC), in Latin and in various vernacular languages. Technically the collection includes items ranging from the first printed edition (Rome, 1469) to the present, but the focus is strongly on material published in the early modern period.

This collection was formed by Junius Spencer Morgan, the nephew of the financier J. P. Morgan. Morgan's interest in Virgil was undoubtedly encouraged during his student days at Princeton and reflects his efforts to obtain the best copies he could find of items noteworthy for their scholarship, their illustrations, or their place in publishing history. The result is one of the largest collections of early printed editions of Virgil in the world, a collection whose balance and integrity make it the proper beginning place for research in this field. Given Virgil's central place in western education during the early centuries of printing, the catalogue of the Morgan collection should be of interest to art historians, cultural historians, and historians of education as well as classicists and specialists in printing history and the history of the book. This handsomely-produced volume includes close to fifty full-page color illustrations from the collection.

Craig Kallendorf received his Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina, and is Professor of Classics and English and Cornerstone Faculty Fellow at Texas A&M University. His recent books include two Oxford monographs on Virgil: Virgil and the Myth of Venice: Books and Readers in Renaissance Italy (1999) and The Other Virgil: Subversive Readings of the Aeneid in Early Modern Culture (2007), along with bibliographies of early Italian printed editions of Virgil and of the Aldine collection at the University of Texas. For Oak Knoll Press, he has co-edited The Books of Venice / Il libro veneziano (2009) and is working on a complete bibliography of the pre-1850 printed editions of Virgil.

(Virgil) Kallendorf, Craig W. A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE EARLY PRINTED EDITIONS OF VIRGIL, 1469-1850.
New Castle, Delaware Oak Knoll Press 2012 8.5 x 11 inches hardcover 384 pages
This book serves as a short-title catalogue of all the early printed editions of the Roman poet Virgil, from the first edition in 1469 up to and including books published in 1850. Virgil's three major poems, the Eclogues, the Georgics, and the Aeneid, have stood at the center of western civilization throughout the early modern and modern periods. As such they were reprinted, individually and together, throughout Europe and the Americas. This bibliography offers the first complete record of the diffusion of these seminal works.

Almost five thousand books, including editions in the original Latin and in translation, are entered into the bibliography. The entries rest on direct observation of books in two large, discrete Virgil collections, along with material gathered from twenty-eight databases and specialized bibliographies and from individual libraries throughout the world. This bibliography is three times the size of its predecessor, Giuliano Mambelli's now over fifty year old Gli annali delle edizioni virgiliani, filling out and correcting the record in ways that have only become possible in the computer age.

Each entry contains information on the printer and place of publication, the names of any translators, editors, and commentators, and an indication of where a copy of the book may be found. An index of names allows cultural historians to connect Virgil to the scholarly activities of succeeding generations, while indices of printers and places of publication serve the needs of printing historians.

Craig Kallendorf received his Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina and is Professor of English and Classics at Texas A&M University. His recent books include The Other Virgil: Subversive Readings of the Aeneid in Early Modern Culture (Oxford University Press, 2007) and bibliographies of early Italian printed editions of Virgil and of the Aldine collection at the University of Texas. For Oak Knoll Press he has co-edited The Books of Venice / Il libro veneziano (2009) and written A Catalogue of the Junius Spencer Morgan Collection of Virgil in the Princeton University Library (2010).

Reprint of the first edition which was published in Paris by E. Perrin over the period 1882-1890 (Besterman 6460). François-Marie Arouet (21 November 1694-30 May 1778), better known by the pen name Voltaire, was a French Enlightenment writer, essayist, deist, and philosopher known for his wit, philosophical sport, and defense of civil liberties, including freedom of religion and the right to a fair trial. He was an outspoken supporter of social reform despite strict censorship laws in France and harsh penalties for those who broke them. A satirical polemicist, he frequently made use of his works to criticize Christian Church dogma and the French institutions of his day. This remains a standard work on Voltaire, describing 12,500 works.

2 volumes Worcester, MA American Antiquarian Society 2003 small 4to. cloth cxvi, (ii), 497+(1); vi, (ii), 499-1136 pages
A comprehensive successor to earlier bibliographies of Masonic books printed in the United States, such as Richard Barthelmess's Bibliographie der Freimaurerei in Amerika (1856) and Enoch T. Carson's Bibliotheca Masonica Carsoniana (1874). Volume 1 contains Introductory Essays and Entries from 1734 to 1827; Volume 2, entries from 1827-1850 and Indexes. The author has compiled 5,560 annotated entries, personally examining 95 percent of those for which surviving copies are known. Arranged in a chronological/geographical format, listing U.S. Masonic publications by date and state; and attempting to reclaim lost bibliographical and historical lore known to the Masons of earlier generations; by means of textual quotations, a sense and flavor of the social, political, and religious issues that preoccupied U.S. Freemasons and their detractors in the 18th and 19th centuries, such as the mythical early history of Masonry, women and Masonry, African-American Freemasonry, religion and Freemasonry, and politics and Freemasonry; and raw data on printing of Masonic literature and its economics in the early United States. "The chronological/geographical arrangement, which allows one to track the genesis and growth of the Craft in each state through the year 1850, provides a sense of time (cause-and-effect), context, and history." (introduction). Illustrated throughout with 70 title-page facsimiles, from "The Constitutions of the Free-Masons" (Phila., Benjamin Franklin, 1734), to the "Constitution of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons for the State of California, and Minutes of the Proceedings of the Convention to Constitute Said Lodge" (San Francisco, Bartlett & Robb, 1850). A valuable reference for scholars of U.S. Freemasonry, historians of U.S. social, political, and religious thought, librarians, and students of early U.S. printing.

(Walton, Izaak) Oliver, Peter A NEW CHRONICLE OF THE COMPLEAT ANGLER.
Mansfield Centre, CT Martino Publishing 2005 8vo. cloth. xv, (v), 301+(1) pages.
Reprint of the first edition published in New York in 1936 (Besterman 6481). Izaak Walton, 1593-1683, wrote one of the most famous books in the English language, The Compleat Angler; or, the Contemplative Man's Recreation. The first edition appeared in 1653, and it was reissued frequently with additional material; the last edition in Walton's lifetime appeared in 1676. The book not only describes the technique of angling, but it draws a picture of peace and simple virtue that was Walton's protest against the civil wars taking place at the time. He also wrote several biographies, including ones of John Donne (1640), Sir Henry Wotton (1651), and George Herbert (1670), all of who were his friends. Oliver's bibliography is one of several on Walton. Oliver provides full title, collation, and plate count. Valuable annotations are also provided.
