The John Harvard Library, founded in 1959, publishes essential American writings, including novels, poetry, memoirs, criticism, and works of social and political history, representing all periods, from the beginning of settlement in America to the twenty-first century.
The purpose of the John Harvard Library is to make these works available to scholars and general readers in affordable, authoritative editions. The new paperback editions in the John Harvard Library have a uniform look, with cover illustrations by artist Robert Carter.
