Review
"Kellner's dictionary is by far the most comprehensive single reference source covering the many facets of one of the richest periods in recent American literary and artistic history. The author's informative introduction gives perspective to the period covered and the concluding 16-page bibliography is indispensable for collection managers. Highly recommended for all academic and large public libraries."-Choice
