BIBLIOGRAPHIES
CHAPTER I
DRYDEN
The bibliography of Dryden's works has been much neglected by
bibliographers and the entries under his name in Lowndes's Bibliographer's
Manual are meagre in the extreme. Much has been done to remedy
this defect in some catalogues of great book collectors. Americans have
taken greater interest in the subject than Englishmen, and the important
Catalogue of an Exhibition of First and other editions of the Works of
John Dryden, 1631-1700, published by the Grolier Club of New York, 1900,
is of great value.
