Collecting H. P. Lovecraft
H. P. Lovecraft
stands out among the many writers who have followed in the footsteps
of Edgar Allan Poe. Lauded and condemned in near equal measure, he
remains a potent force in Twentieth-century supernatural
literature.
H. P. Lovecraft:
A Selected Checklist of First
Editions
Many of
Lovecrafts true firsts are Arkham House publications. However,
reinterpreting, correcting or annotating Lovecrafts work has
become something of a cottage industry.
Update: Collecting Robert E. Howard
2006 marks the
centenary of the birth of the great pulp writer Robert E. Howard. In
the six years since we last looked at his work, many new, interesting
and collectable editions have appeared in the marketplace.
Collecting Joe Haldeman
Haldeman grew
up in Alaska, watching the heavens through his telescope and dreaming
of becoming an astronaut. However, his thoughts and attitudes were
profoundly shaped by his service in the Vietnam War. These
often-conflicting influences occur repeatedly his work. He has won
nearly every award in the science fiction field.
