Indiana Authors and Their Books, 1816-1916
We realized that we were undertaking a task of large proportions when we began the compilation of a biographical and bibliographical list of Hoosiers who had published books during the first century of Indiana's statehood. We knew that it was a forbidding project even after we had decided to exclude textbooks, news-paper articles, contributions to periodicals or serials, state or federal publications, and printings of speeches except when they were discourses presumably intended as much for the printed page as for the platform. But still we failed to realize the extent of the flowering of the art of letters in our state. For there has been and there still remains something in this rich, imperturbable Middle West which causes its true citizen to contemplate the things which interest him, and to cherish a desire to put his observations on paper.
