The rest of the shelf. Three further Griswold items bound the canon. A Pictorial History of Fort Wayne, 1614 to 1914, his full-page chronological series in the Fort Wayne Sentinel in 1914, is the 1917 volumes in embryo. The Griswold-Phelps Handbook and Guide to Fort Wayne, Indiana, for 1913–1914 (Internet Archive: griswoldphelpsha00gris) is a guidebook-encyclopedia of the 1913 city — used here as a dated snapshot of businesses, streets and institutions, not as a history. Builders of Greater Fort Wayne (copyright 1926; issued posthumously in 1927 — Griswold died 8 March 1927) is portraits and life stories of the city's then-living business men; the ACPL Genealogy Center has indexed it and posted the index online, which makes it the fastest name-check against the 1920s business city.
