The Library of America: Now available in one complete collection. Thirty years ago, The Library of America was founded to undertake a historic endeavor: to help preserve the nation''s cultural heritage by publishing America''s best and most significant writing in durable and authoritative editions. Hailed as "the most important book-publishing project in the nation''s history" (Newsweek), this award-winning series maintains America''s most treasured writers in "the finest-looking, longest-lasting edition ever made" (The New Republic). Now the entire Library of America series is available in one complete collection for home, office, or institutional libraries. The set is made up of 255 titles across a wide range of genres, including fiction, history, poetry, drama, essays, philosophy, travel writing, journalism, sermons, speeches, and slave narratives. From the writings of the Founding Fathers to the poetry of Walt Whitman and Robert Frost, from the journalism of the Civil Rights movement to the novels of Zora Neale Hurston and Philip Roth, from Abraham Lincoln: Speeches & Writings to H.P. Lovecraft: Tales, this is the ultimate collection of American letters. For 2012, the Library of America Complete Collection has been updated and expanded with recently published titles including Kurt Vonnegut: Novels & Stories, John Adams: Revolutionary Writings, H.L. Mencken: Prejudices, and The Age of Movies: Selected Writings of Pauline Kael. Click here to see the full list of volumes contained in the collection.
