Note

The difference between an 'article' and 'short story' can be very subjective, as can be seen from some of the titles listed in this collection, e.g. The Tom Brown Question. Some articles are also poems, e.g. Damon and Pythias. Two titles appearing in Punch magazine, Our Man in America and America Day by Day, were long running columns, not individual articles. And what about 'essays'? Confusing, isn't it?

Web textPublished on the web by Gutenberg and others (and some on commercial CDs). These appear to originate from 'Dagny and the Blandings Group' [no connection] who attribute them to Punch magazine.
