Virginia Brackett has written 15 books, the most recent being "In the Company of Patriots." "The New York Journal of Books" describes it as "a classical drama crossed with an archeological dig; instead of pottery shards, burial mounds, and stone tools, it uses scrapbooks, newspaper clippings . . . and family lore linking the past to the present." Brackett assists veterans and their family members to write their own stories, as she did hers. Her book, "The Facts on File: Companion to 16th and 17th-Century British Poetry," was named a Booklist Editor’s Choice in 2008. "Restless Genius: The Story of Virginia Woolf" was a recommended feminist book for youth by the Amelia Bloomer Project, (Feminist Task Force of the Social Responsibilities Round Table, ALA), 2005; a PSLA YA Top Forty Nonfiction 2004 Title, and was included in the "Writers of Imagination" series, Tristate Series of Note, 2005. "A Home in the Heart: The Story of Sandra Cisneros" was a Tristate Book of Note and included in the PSLA YA Top Forty Nonfiction 2004 Titles.
