If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

It is a really collection of people and "things" related to founding of the US. I was very moved by Alexander Hamilton and admire his courage and high moral standards. I am glad that Abigail Adams and Betsy Ross are in this collection as well. The did not play an active political roles in government, yet their contribution to the founding of the US are also indelible. I really enjoyed listening to all their stories.
