Synopsis

A comprehensive dictionary of pseudonyms used by literary writers in the English language from the 16th century to the present day, covering British, American, Canadian, Australian, New Zealand and South African writers. It is arranged in two alphabetical sequences. Part One is an alphabetical list of some 16,800 pseudonyms followed by the writer's real name. Part Two is an alphabetical list of some 10,600 writers with brief biographical details followed by pseudonym(s) and selected book titles.

Review

"One may never realize the vast amount of pseudonymous literature written over several centuries until looking into an excellent guide like this.... Easy to use, well arranged, and well designed, this dictionary deserves a place in most public and academic libraries."
