Leon Garfield at eNotes (dozens of "Leon Garfield Critical Essays")
leongarfield.com — I added this one to Extlinks but its status is known to me. Some pages accept visitor contributions. — perhaps published/financed by Johnson & Alcock Ltd (Agent http://leongarfield.com/?page_id=129)? but that agency does not link here from its Authors: Estates: Garfield, Leon http://www.johnsonandalcock.co.uk/content/view/59/39/ 
"Garfield, Leon" at WorldCat

message: [WorldCat: Garfield reports that Garfield's work most widely held in participating libraries is Shakespeare Stories (Gollancz, 1985), a narrative adaptation of 12 plays. Volume II (Gollancz, 1994) covers 7 plays and ranks seventh in libraries. Among other things today, I added Ext links to WorldCat records for first editions of the two books. I also added the two books to Selected works.
In the text we continue to cover Garfield adaptations of Shakespeare only for the animated TV show and resulting Sam Wanamaker Award. --P64 (talk) 20:12, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
