From the introduction: "In examining all of the London stories and novels in their original published form, it became clear that many errors had occurred in previous bibliographies - errors in titles of stories, periodical titles in dates of appearances of certain works, and errors of omission. These errors have been rectified herein; and, for example, the present work: lists for the first time the newly-discovered Bret Harte-type London story A NORTHLAND MIRACLE (entry 188); notes for the first time that THE WHALE TOOTH (entry 103) was published in England, under a different title, three years before its American appearance; is the first to recognize that THE CAPTAIN OF THE SUSAN DREW (entry 172) and POPPY CARGO are one and the same story lists the true first appearance of THE UNMASKING OF THE CAD (entry 162); and is the first to offer any explanation of the confused dating of London's stories that appeared in the periodical LADY'S REALM. In addition, the present work is the first full-length annotated London bibliography; it is the first to list unpublished plays and their productions that were drawn from certain of the author's fictional works, and to cite the fees the author received for certain of his works and first to attempt to cite important critical sources of discussion on key fictional works by the author" Illustrations.
