may be acceptable. Please send completed papers, together with an
abstract and a brief biographical statement, to:

combine a bio-bibliographical narrative with a critical assessment of
the author's works.

a sample entry and style guidelines, or consult your library reference
section for examples of previous volumes in the series.

Authors of published entries receive a small honorarium and a copy of the
volume.
