The Chronology of American Literature in the 20th Century: 1910-1919

Some highlights: classic works by Edith Wharton, Willa Cather, Jack London, Booth Tarkington, Theodore Dreiser, Mark Twain, Henry James & Sherwood Anderson. The 1st two Fiction Pulitzer Prize winners (His Family, The Magnificent Ambersons). Tarzan, Lad the Dog, Pollyanna & Raggedy Ann.
This is the 10th instalment of my chronology of American fiction. It is a list of novels & short story collections by American authors published in 1910-1919. (As before, if a book icon didn't exist in the database I created its icon using an early edition cover, as far as possible. BTW, Item 5 is a publicity poster.)
