American Authors and the Literary Marketplace Since 1900 by James L. W. West PDF Summary

Book Description: An examination of professional authorship in the US during the 20th century. West (English, Pennsylvania State U.) describes the changing professional situation faced by writers of fiction and poetry. He includes discussions of authorship, publishing, book distribution, the trade editor, the literary agent, the magazine market, subsidiary rights, and the blockbuster mentality. He deals with both well-known and lesser-known literary figures, but always with the "public" author, the serious artist intent on reaching a large audience and making a living from writing.
