Bibliography of Elia Wilkinson Peattie

To say that Elia Peattie wrote voluminously would be an understatement. Because she published in diverse newspapers and periodicals for approximately fifty years (1882-1932), a definitive bibliography would be nearly impossible to collect. This bibliography, reprinted with permission from Impertinences: Selected Writings of Elia Peattie, A Journalist in the Gilded Age (Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 2007) includes her major works and stories from leading periodicals as well as her writings from the Omaha World-Herald—but only a few of the over 5,000 book reviews and the literally hundreds of stories, articles, and poems published by her in the Chicago Tribune and other newspapers. This online bibliography has added selected early book reviews from the Chicago Tribune and will update entries as new works are discovered.
