The Book Prize Index: Ranking Nonfiction by Award Recognition
I created a free, searchable index to track major nonfiction book prizes and the titles they honor. By weighting wins and list placements, with established awards carrying more influence, this catalog highlights the highest-recognized works. The database currently includes over 7,000 books and nearly 9,000 award appearances across 55 categories, offering a clear view of literary achievement.
