Lion Feuchtwanger: A Bibliographic Handbook is the first comprehensive documentation of Feuchtwanger's writings. Beginning with the earliest publications in 1905, it sets out the entire history of Feuchtwanger publications right up to the present day. The most important source for this bibliogra was the Lion Feuchtwanger Memorial Library in Los Angeles. The point of departure for notes on the German editions was the dissertation by Gertrude Goetz (Univ. of Southern California 1969). Recent research using advanced computer resources such as OCLC and RLIN as well as numerous visits to publishing houses and libraries have made it possible to update and expand on details given in the dissertation.
