(4) YA World Writers series. Though factually sound, this biography never goes beneath the surface. Illustrated with adequate black-and-white photos, the text traces Burroughs's life through his many vocations, touches on his lifelong interest in the military, and discusses his literary fame, but doesn't capture the restless spirit that informed his life choices nor explain the enduring popularity of his work. Bib., glos., ind.
