It depends on the language and country. In the US, Abraham Lincoln has to be right up there in book count and overall coverage. Jesus has got to be right there but so much of that is myth that it's hard to sort the facts from the myth.

If you're willing to consider a group, I suggest the Beatles. There are more books, magazines, movies and Web sites/blogs about the Beatles than any other individual or group that I can think of. There are hundreds -- maybe more than 1,000 -- of books about the Beatles. There are at least 15 full-length films either by or about the Beatles, in addition to several documentaries.

I think it would be Christ Jesus, but, I am not 100% sure.
This may help;
"Granted, Amazon.com reveals 177 matches for Muhammad Ali among its books, a very impressive total, even if the second match was for Muhammad Ali Mazidi's $116 manual on IBM computers.
However, there were 303 matches for Bill Clinton, 316 for Lewis and Clark, 439 for Winston Churchill, 551 for Thomas Jefferson, 789 for Abraham Lincoln and more than 6,600 for Jesus".

it can make experience if you're careful. pretend for a second that you're writing a narrative about your existence. you would possibly want to write in previous stressful to communicate activities that exceeded off to you previous to at present. putting out with at present, you would possibly want to communicate activities in latest stressful. you may word this theory for your personality on your tale--the previous stressful is construction history and relaying previous activities and then you capture the reader as a lot as what is going on at present with the nature.
