Mystery and Detective Fiction in the Library of Congress Classification Scheme, Second Edition (Paperback)

This manual provides a guide to the cataloging of criminous literature (i.e., mystery and detective fiction, spy stories, suspense novels, gothic mysteries, and some horror and macabre literature) in the Library of Congress classification scheme--including subject headings, classification numbers, author main entries and literature numbers, artist main entries and artist numbers, and the numbers for major motion pictures, radio programs, television programs, and comic books associated with the field. This Second Edition more than doubles the coverage of the 1987 original version.
