Abstrakt: This article focuses on new editions of previously published works, reissues of significant works that had been out of print, the U.S. editions of works published elsewhere in English, additional volumes in a publisher's series that the periodical MultiCultural Review has reviewed, translations and previously published works that have been reissued in a new form, such as audiocassettes, as of December 2003. New editions include, Latina and Latino Voices in Literature by Frances Ann Day. The first edition of this volume of biographies and bibliographies of Hispanic authors currently working in the U.S. was published in 1997 and the following year received the Denali Press Award for outstanding reference works on cultural diversity. The volume also includes Black Victory: The Rise and Fall of the White Primary in Texas by Darlene Clark Hine. Black Victory tells the story of an important early success in the struggle for black voting rights in the South. The book was originally published in 1979. For this edition, Steven F. Lawson, Merline Pitre, and Hine have added introductory essays that discuss the significance of the book's publication on the historiography of the civil rights period and look back with new perspectives on the demise of white primaries.
