This is a curated index to the Project Gutenberg catalog of Irving Bacheller, the prolific early 20th-century novelist who helped found the Authors' Club of New York and once possessed the largest circulation of any American author. Here you'll find his signature works: "Eben Holden," the beloved tale of rural New York that made him famous, and "A Man for the Ages," his dramatic exploration of Abraham Lincoln's formative years. Bacheller wrote with intimate knowledge of American backroads, small-town life, and the textures of 19th-century America before industrialization reshaped everything. His stories range from romantic tales to adventure narratives to sharp social commentary, all rendered in the warm, vernacular voice of a journalist-turned-novelist who knew how to tell a story. For readers curious about the roots of American popular fiction, this index serves as a roadmap to one of the era's most widely read voices.
