Daniel Traister, a curator in Penn's Rare Book and Manuscript Library, has long been interested in why some books live and others -- most of them -- die.
"Dead Hoosiers" concerns some books written by Indianans that didn't make it. Traister is not an Indianan. He comes from New York, and his degrees come from Colby College (Waterville, Maine), New York University, and Columbia University. He occasionally teaches classes for the Department of English at Penn and for the Rare Book School at the University of Virginia.
