American author houses, museums, memorials, and libraries

"All over the United States, American authors are commemorated in museums, library collections, gravesites, memorial walks, and monuments. Here is a guide to them all - the well known (the Walden Pond State Reservation in Concord, Massachusetts) and the less so (the Lewis Grizzard museum and former filling station in Moreland, Georgia)." "Also included are live performances that serve as regular tributes, such as the annual reading of the poem The Night Before Christmas at the gravesite of Clement Clarke Moore in Brooklyn, New York." "For each entry, the author provides address, phone number, hours and dates open and any other necessary information. The result is a treasure map for the reader of, and traveler through, the world of American literature."--Jacket.
