Excerpt from A List of American Dramas in the New York Public LibraryA few flays by English authors have been included in this list. In all cases these are flays written by authors whose long residence here has identified them with America. A few adaptations of flays originally written by European authors have also been included under the names of the adapters.To the list as it first appeared in the Bulletin a number of titles have been added, while a few errors have been corrected. A title index has also been added. Thanks are due to Professor Brander Matthews, of Columbia University, and President F. W. Atkinson, of the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn, for suggestions and criticism.The plays in this list are in the Reference Department of the Library, and must be consulted in the Central Building, Fifth Avenue and Forty-second Street. They may not be borrowed for use outside the building.The Branches of the Library own many standard and many contemporary plays which may be borrowed for home use.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
