Stephen (havan) | 330 comments I was a bit surprised to see that Adlai Stevenson had no credits as an author. Yet there are a number of entries for his papers and writings and even a book entitled The Wit and Wisdom of Adlai Stevenson I added a credit as "Inspired by" but I wondered what others thought would be more proper.

Stephen (havan) | 330 comments yeppers, I'll correct the link and the duplicates. (And the quote that led me to this problem in the first place)

However, my original question stands... What is the proper form of credit for the book I added him to?

Deon (deonva) | 3718 comments the senator should not have been combined with the II, he is the III.

Banjomike | 5166 comments I would add him as a 'full' author. He IS the origin of all the sayings, not Hanna.
