Summary
"The publication presents a selected list of 203 books and audio cassettes that are derived from family stories. They range from picture books based on a single event to novels or series of novels detailing the entire texture of individual lives. All have been given structure and literary polish and many are richly illustrated, but at the center of each lie the thoughts and feelings of a living individual, not a fictional creation. Even if the reader remains unaware that a given story is that of a real person , this unique source material gives the stories an immediacy and integrity that draws readers in and allows them to participate directly in another time."
