~ Author Index ~

Arranged in order of publication date (and by author), the bookshelf represents a good chunk of my collection ~ this list is about 650 books, though I've got about 1,000 total piled on bookshelves around my house. Someday I might get everything mentioned on this site.

Over the years, these books have offered advice to many women and men, young and old. The wisdom lives here on these pages, and I offer my sincere praise to these authors for doing the real work ~ I just report the facts, ma'am. I also wish to thank my dear friends and family members (and even some strangers!) who have contributed to the collection over the years.

Please note: This bibliography of books in Miss Abigail's collection is provided for reference only. These are not for sale and I can't tell you how much your books are worth ~ I just know what I paid for them. Check out used bookstores or online shops (see a list on the Abiblog) if you'd like to buy or see what others are selling them for.

Also note: A few of the titles have reprint/edition information following their dates. If it is a reprint, I have placed the books under their original copyright date, in order to preserve the date of the original advice. If the book is a revised edition, however, it should appear under the date of the revision. Unless I forgot. Hey, I'm not perfect!
