Presents every known reprinted abstract of every dissertation relating to John Steinbeck written in English between 1946 and 1993. The reference allows students of the American writer not only to track down information, but to follow the development of Steinbeck criticism over the past few decades. A long essay also notes the trends and the gaps that are crying to be filled by future scholars. Well indexed. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
