" Sherwood Anderson: A Writer in America" is the definitive
biography of this major American writer of novels and short
stories, whose work includes the modern classic "Winesburg, Ohio."
In the first volume of this monumental two-volume work, Walter
Rideout chronicles the life of Anderson from his birth and his
early business career through his beginnings as a writer and
finally to his move in the mid-1920s to "Ripshin," his house near
Marion, Virginia. The second volume will cover Anderson's return to
business pursuits, his extensive travels in the South touring
factories, which resulted in his political involvement in labor
struggles and several books on the topic, and finally his
unexpected death in 1941. No other existing Anderson biography, the
most recent of which was published nearly twenty years ago, is as
thoroughly researched, so extensively based on primary sources and
interviews with a range of Anderson friends and family members, or
as complete in its vision of the man and the writer. The result is
an unparalleled biography--one that locates the private man, while
astutely placing his life and writings in a broader social and
political context.
