New York Times Best Seller List
''The New York Times'' Best Seller list is widely considered the preeminent list of best-selling books in the United States. John Bear, ''The #1 New York Times Best Seller: intriguing facts about the 484 books that have been #1 New York Times bestsellers since the first list, 50 years ago'', Berkeley: Ten Speed Press, 1992.

In 2017, a ''Times'' representative said that the goal is that the lists reflect authentic best sell ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
