* The Library of America - Various Authors, Collection #1 (134 books)

THE LIBRARY OF AMERICA (LOA), an independent nonprofit organization, works to preserve the nation's literary heritage by publishing, and keeping in print, authoritative editions of America's best and most significant writing.  The distinctive Library of America editions encompass all periods and genres — from poetry, novels, and memoirs to journalism, crime writing, science fiction, and historically important documents and texts — to showcase the vitality and variety of America’s literary legacy.

Some 380 volumes in the ongoing series have been published to-date (March 1, 2024).  Approximately one-third of that number — or 134 books — are included in this collection.  In almost all cases, the outstanding volumes have not yet been issued either in digital format or scanned/OCR'd into reader-friendly PDFs.  It is my hope to update the present collection in the future as new volumes become available.
