CHANDLER
LINKS
In
order to compile the link pages, I entered “Bertram Chandler”
(the quotes are necessary) into Google.
This
resulted in approximately 68 pages being returned at ten results
per page. I then proceeded to the last page in the listing and
worked my way forward. (Google is based on page rank –
and a bunch of other stuff – so interesting things on
less popular subjects are often found amongst the last hits.
That was true in this case as well.)
A
large number of the resultant links were to foreign-language
sites. If they looked interesting, I translated the page and
if the garbled results still looked interesting, I included
it below. I was far more critical of foreign language pages
than I was of English language pages.
An
equally large number of results were Ebay or Amazon searches
which were also eliminated; if you are looking for works by
Chandler, those are two good places to start.
The
links that made it onto this page have at worst a tenuous connection
to Chandler. For example, one page that discusses Space Opera
mentions Chandler in passing, but I included it since many folks
who like Chandler’s stories also like Space Opera and
might find it of interest.
I’ve
attempted to group these links into sensible categories. One
such is the book and magazine sellers. I’ve included these
since many of Chandler’s works are out of print and you
might need to look at every single one of these pages in order
to find a particular volume.
The
rest of the links either provide bibliographic reference material
(such as the magazine contents pages), images of Chandler books,
a little history or places to find reviews and commentary on
the author.
