Mercer University Press:

THE BIOGRAPHER'S QUEST, based on fifty years of experience, explains how life-writers do archival research, find new sources, and experience the thrill of constant discoveries; it also discusses how to conduct interviews by establishing confidence, asking the right questions, and persuading people to reveal what they know. Meyers describes how to create a chronology, interpret often conflicting written and spoken evidence, organize material into a meaningful pattern, and show how the author's life illuminates his work.
