Scott (scottandrewh) | 7 comments I have contributed three editions of a new book that includes an essay by me: The Maid of Arran by L. Frank Baum. It is a play based on a novel by William Black and all three editions contain the first two chapters of the source novel.

The William Black is this William Black: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

but I can only seem to add this William Black:

Any suggestions?

To add William Black to a book, there have to be 3 spaces between William and Black. (GR uses extra spaces in an author name to separate authors with the same name.)
