Jack Bales, to my knowledge, is the only author who has written a biography of Kenneth Roberts. Mr. Bales, in fact, has written two books on Kenneth Roberts and his works. His first book is titled Kenneth Roberts: The Man and His Works (1989) and the second Kenneth Roberts (1993). According to Mr. Bales in a recent e-mail exchange, the first work is “part biography / part annotated bibliography of commentary and criticism.” The second work is “biography and commentary on his books” (e-mail, 14 Apr 2009).
