I've run into length limitations in posting the entire list to a single diary, so I have split this list into two parts. To be included on the list below, the authors had to meet the following criteria:
- active kossacks: the author must be a registered user who must have posted a comment or diary within the past six months (or so)
- books in print: the book must be currently in print and available from a retailer
- no self published works: sometimes it is hard for me to determine which books are self-published, but I've made my best effort
If you are an author (or you know an author) who I made a mistake in categorizing, please let me know and I'll change it and know that any mistakes or omissions weren't done in malice but rather in ignorance.
The second part of the list, with all the out-of-print books and self-published books and books by former kossacks and books by relatives of kossacks will be published soon is now up.
