Bibliography
This bibliography, based on a manuscript notebook of
Thomas Wentworth Higginson, was originally compiled by the
Cambridge Public Library, in 1906, in honor of the author's eighty-third birthday.
This list has been revised and brought up to date by
Colonel Higginson's private secretary.
It does not aim to include all of his writings, but only the more important ones.
In the following list the place in parenthesis under the year indicates where
Higginson resided during that time.
Def. I, II, etc., after a title refers to the volume in the definitive edition (1900) in which that title also appears.
