The Colby Quarterly may be of interest to those seeking to place Lovecraft in the wider context of New England writers. The full-text of the journal is now online for free, 1943-2003. The journal…

“solicited [articles] on Maine authors and Maine history, including books and authors that had influenced Maine life and letters [and as the journal expanded to cover a wider range of English literature] The special interest in Maine and regional history and literature was maintained, now including the neighboring provinces of Canada”

After surviving four months in the cargo hold of an Atlantic tramp steamer crewed by swivel-eyed Norwegians (or so it seemed, judging by how long it was taking)… it arriveth!

Grim Reviews rounds up some of the Lovecraft biography book-covers, with a short essay.

Here are some addition covers not on the Grim Reviews page…

And although it’s not technically a biography, this cover from Panther Books (UK) in the 1970s is hard to beat…

I Am (in) New York

Sigh. It seems my copy of S.T. Joshi’s magnum opus Lovecraft biography I Am Providence: The Life and Times of H. P. Lovecraft is still in the USA. I had a shipping notification on 28th October 2010, and had hoped it might be in my hands in the UK by Christmas. But I just checked the despatch number, and the system says it’s only just been accepted in the New York depot. Possibly in a crypt in the Red Hook district.

Incidentally, the book is now listed on Amazon USA ($100.00 from Amazon with free shipping). Perhaps it might have been quicker to wait for the Amazon listing, and then (assuming there are copies in their warehouse) rely on Amazon’s generally quite speedy service for the transatlantic shipping.
