Cader Book's "20th Century Bestsellers (Fiction)"

Cader Books has provided a list of the Top 10 bestsellers in the United States, in both fiction and non-fiction (and, for a brief time, War Books), for each year from 1900-1998. This list provides an insight to the interests of this nation at a given point of the 20th century. Many of the early books are hard to find…...but well worth the treasure hunt. You might find some in your great-grandparents’ libraries.
