Miss Toosey's mission.
Other books by the same author are Laddie,
Lil, Tip cat.
It is all the more necessary to follow out this method of entry in the case of sequels to such books. For example there is a book
Lady of the decoration, The.
and its sequel
Lady married, The, by the Author of "The lady
of the decoration."
when the books can be entered together and in order of reading as
Lady of the decoration, The.
— Lady married, The, by the [same author.]
Other and better-known instances are the books "by the Author of 'Elizabeth and her German Garden.'" Here, however, the identity of the author has been ascertained, and the books are all brought together in the ordinary way under her name (Countess von Arnim), and are not put under "Elizabeth and her German Garden," the entry for which book would disclose the name of the author and direct to the main-entry (Arnim), where all her books are to be found.
Further troublesome books are those in which the authors' names are veiled by initials which may be given on the title-pages or at the end of the prefaces. The method of entry is much the same as that for books altogether anonymous, except that either an entry or a reference is given from the last initial (from the first also if thought to be required) to the entry word adopted. The full title of the book taken in illustration reads:
The makers of Hellas: a critical inquiry into the philosophy and religion of Ancient Greece, by E.E.G.; with an introduction, notes, and conclusion by Frank B. Jevons, M.A., Litt.D. 1903
