Grace Livingston Hill: A Checklist
Joanna Paulsen
1981, Published by Amereon House
This booklet is exactly what it says—a checklist—doubtless used by many collectors (myself included!) before the internet made things so much easier. Books are listed alphabetically and by date. Its preface contains a very brief biography. It’s “Dedicated to all of the ardent fans of Grace Livingston Hill who have kept alive her memory and spirit.”
Just a few minor corrections to the list:
-
- A Colonial Girl” was NOT written by Grace Livingston Hill. It was written by Grace Livingston Furniss and Abbey Sage Richardson.
-
- Several titles that we consider to be part of Grace’s work are not listed. Pansies for Thoughts (1888) was a devotional that Grace put together using quotes from her aunt’s Pansy Books. Grace also contributed to A Sevenfold Trouble (1889) and The Kaleidoscope (1892), which were co-written with Pansy, members of Grace’s family and their friends. The Christian Endeavor Hour with Light for the Leader (1896) is also missing from the list. It was co-written with her husband, Rev Thomas G. F. Hill.
-
- There are three titles incorrectly listed under 1934, but they are also correctly listed under 1935.
-
- The list of books by Grace’s mother, Mrs. C.M. Livingston (Marcia Macdonald Livingston), is incomplete. You can see the complete list of Marcia’s books here.
-
- The list of books by Grace’s daughter, Ruth, is incomplete. She is also mis-identified as Grace’s sister. You can see the complete list of Ruth’s books here.
-
- The list of books by Grace’s daughter, Margaret, is incomplete. You can see the complete list of Margaret’s books here.
