BibLaTex MLA, cite Editor’s Introduction

Today a bit of hard-won wisdom on MLA-style citation with LaTeX. I want to cite the introduction to an edition, by the editor. Below is the BibTex entry for Wyn Kelley’s introduction to Herman Melville’s Benito Cereno.


@INCOLLECTION{KelleyBenitoIntro2006,
options = {useauthor=false},
editor = {Kelley, Wyn},
title = {An Introduction to \textit{Benito Cereno}},
booktitle = {Benito Cereno \rm{(1855), by Herman Melville}},
bookauthor = {Melville, Herman},
publisher = {Bedford/St. Martins},
year = {2006},
pages = {5--35},
address = {New York},
}


Though book title is a cluge, when processed with James Clawson’s BibLaTeX MLA, it WORKS.
