I. INTRODUCTION
WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE was a voluminous writer. This bibliography contains his books, most of the magazine articles, and certain special newspaper features. It does not list his newspaper editorials while he worked on various Kansas papers, including the El Dorado Republican and the Kansas City Star, nor his editorials for the Emporia Gazette from 1895 to 1943. The best of his Gazette editorials, including "What's the Matter With Kansas?" and "Mary White," are published in The Editor and His People (1924), edited by H. O. Mahin, and in Forty Years On Main Street (1937), edited by R. H. Fitzgibbon.
This bibliography contains only those book reviews by White which were real literary and interpretive essays. He wrote innumerable short reviews, that are not included, for publications such as the Book-of-the-Month Club Nears and others. Titles of White's many speeches are included in the bibliography whenever they were reprinted in magazines or in pamphlet form. The bibliography does not list the numerous short advertising "blurbs" that White wrote to help launch new books, nor does it contain his intermittent syndicated newspaper dispatches such as he wrote over the years for the Bell syndicate, for the George M. Adams syndicate, and for the North American Newspaper Alliance. White always printed his syndicated features in the Emporia Gazette, and the Index for the New York Times also generally lists these newspaper stories.
