Local Editions by Category:

The following editions of on-line books have been created by the Celebration of Women Writers project. Books are listed in only a single primary category, even though, in some cases, they could be considered to belong to more than one category. Within each category, books are listed alphabetically by author. If you are interested in all works of a particular author, it may be preferable to consult the listing of "Local Editions By Author" rather than this listing by categories.
