ISBN: 0810813785
Lanham, Maryland: Scarecrow Press, 1981. First Edition. Hardcover. Robert J. Milewski's exhaustively authoritative "Jack Kerouac: An Annoted Bibliography of Secondary Sources, 1944-1979" is simply a masterwork of bibliography. "Part 1A" consists of "Reviews of Kerouac's Primary Works," including "Big Sur," "Book of Dreams," "Desolation Angels," "The Dharma Bums," "Doctor Sax," "Heaven and Other Poems," "Lonesome Traveler," "Maggie Cassidy," "Mexico City Blues" and many more. "Part 1B" consists of "Films, Including Motion Picture Adaptations and Reviews of Primary Works, and Related Places." "Part 1C" consists of "Foreign Language Reviews and Related Articles." "Part II" consists of "General Reviews and Articles on Kerouac." "Part III" consists of "Creative Works Influenced by Kerouac," and the "Appendixes" feature very interesting inclusions such as Allen Ginsberg's "Letter to Dennis McNally Concerning His Biography of Jack Kerouac, 'Desolate Angel,'" which is quite revealing. We could go on in this manner, and although it might displease the bibliographer himself, instead of exhaustively listing all that is in the book, view the pictures provided of the Table of Contents page(s) to fully understand the truly titanic scope of this undertaking. This is an esteemed resource made by and for real Kerouac scholars, only. First Edition Hardcover issued without dust-jacket. In very fine condition with only some spotting to edges, esp. at topmost fine-edge, & moderate-to-pronounced rubbing to back cover. Fine. [Item #4617]
