Ellen G. White (November 26, 1827 – July 16, 1915), one of the founders of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, authored numerous books,[1] pamphlets, and periodical articles.

Books

This page lists White's books, their publication dates and number of pages.[2][3][4][5] Approximately 180 books which identify her as author fall into two categories: (1) those published during her lifetime, i.e., until her death in 1915—a group of about 50 volumes amounting to approximately 29% of the total, and (2) those published after her death under the auspices of the Ellen G. White Estate—a group of about 130 volumes amounting to approximately 71% of the total.

Among the comprehensive bibliographies of White's writings that also include her pamphlets and periodical articles is one posted online by Loma Linda University.[6]
