The great amount of research which has appeared in the journal, "American Literature," since 1949 has made a revision and an enlargement of the previous Analytical Index, published in 1954, imperative. The present volume extends the coverage another ten years and, by combining the new material with the former index, provides an analysis of the first thirty volumes of the journal, beginning with 1929. Since the magazine has been from its beginning the chief repository of research in the field and the principal medium for scholarly reviews, an analysis of this material provides, in essence, a working bibliography for the serious student of American culture form 1929 to 1959. Consequently, care has been taken to expand the already large number of cross-references so that material not clearly indicated by the titles of articles or books may be identified.
