Fall Book Forecast 1970

Here, once again, is the fall book forecast, a preview of volumes to be issued by publishers within the next few months. No attempt has been made to evaluate the books because only the titles are now available to us. An asterisk indicates titles that the publishers considered especially significant. A (p) following the author’s name indicates that the book is appearing in paperback or that a worthwhile title that has been in hardback is now coming out in paperback. Out-of-print books that are being reissued may also be listed.
