THE most comprehensive bibliography of Sheridaniana
is that which was compiled by John P. Anderson for the
Life of Richard Brinsley Sheridan by Lloyd C. Sanders
( 1896), to which however considerable additions are now made.
The Biographical Dictionary here cited is A Biographical Dic-
tionary of the Living Authors of Great Britain and Ireland, Lon-
don, Colburn (1816); according to my copy the compiler was
Frederick Shoberl, who took over from William Upcott, the
author of the lives under the letters A to C.
