(Redirected from Appletons Encyclopedia)
'''Appleton's Cyclopædia of American Biography''' is a six-volume collection of biographies of famous Americans, published between 1887 and 1889, edited by James Grant Wilson (1832-1914) and John Fiske (1842-1901); published by D. Appleton and Company, New York. A seventh volume, containing an appendix and supplementary lists, and thematic indexes to the whole work, was issued in 1901.
Although a major reference for Americana, it is also notorious for including about 200 biographies of fictitious persons (see "fictitious entry").
