Recenzii

This attractively bound bibliography has an annotated listing of about 450 biographies published within the last decade as part of the Read On Series published by Libraries Unlimited. . . . Although this easy- and pleasant-to-use bibliography is meant primarily for public or school libraries, anyone interested in the field of current biography will enjoy perusing this book to discover new books for his personal reading pleasure.
Bottom line: Recommended if you need to update your collection, as these are quite readable, available, attractive, and relatively recent publications.
Another winner in the excellent Read On Series, this volume is the perfect complement to Rosalind Reisner's Read On . . . Life Stories (2011) and is an essential purchase for public libraries.
