"One of the many writers who have contributed to the 'Southern Literary Renaissance' of the past twenty-five or thirty years is a young Mississippi author, Thomas Hal Phillips, whose first novel was written in lieu of a Master's thesis about 1948 and was published in book form in 1950. Since that time he has written four more novels, one of which has been published only in England. In general, these novels have been favorably received by the critics, several of whom have predicted that Mr. Phillips is on the threshold of what will prove to be a very notable career. Although he has been writing only about ten years, his achievement is already substantial. Since Mr. Phillips is already recognized as a worthy novelist and the indications are that his fame is rising rapidly, he seemed a suitable subject for a bio-bibliography. This study has been particularly interesting to the student because Mr. Phillips was born in, lives in, and writes about the region that is native to her as well as to him. Its purpose is to make available for future reference, biographical and bibliographical material which has hitherto not been available in any one place"--Introduction. / "February, 1957." / At head of title: Florida State University. / Typescript. / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts." / Advisor: Sarah Rebecca Reed, Professor Directing Paper. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 60-66).
