A Handlist of the Writings in Book Form (1902-1953) of Walter de la Mare
compiled by
Leonard Clark

It seems extraordinary that in spite of the fact that Walter de la Mare has been writing and publishing books for over fifty years, no complete handlist of his work exists. No writer is better known, or better loved, in the English speaking world. His poems, tales, and critical articles have appeared in many journals, in many collections, and in many languages. Much has been written and broadcast about his particular contribution to letters and, for the past seven years, he has been one of the most "collected" of all English authors. He is now eighty years old, and it is therefore time that a permanent record was made of what he has written in book form. It will be for others, and at a later date, to prepare a definitive bibliography, but while its subject is still alive, this particular honour should be paid him. This does not suggest that Walter de la Mare is waiting sadly on the shores of Styx for a boat to row him over. Indeed, he continues to write in all the full power of his wisdom and maturity, and the collector must still keep his eyes open for the occasional poem and short story. During this very year he plans to publish two new books.

The last bibliography of any consequence was published in the now defunct London Mercury in its two issues for March and April, 1927. This was compiled by Miss Gwendolen Murphy, and though it had a number of minor inaccuracies, it was, at least, in the nature of a halfway stage. Previously, Mr. Henry Danielson had contributed a bibliography to The Bookman's Journal in its first series of "Bibliographies of Modern Authors." This was in 1921. But many years have elapsed since Mr. Danielson and Miss Murphy performed their valuable tasks. The position at present is that very few scholars, writers, librarians, booksellers and collectors are aware of all that Walter de la Mare has written in book form. Further, it could hardly be expected that Walter de la Mare himself should remember the name and birthday of every child he has produced. The present

Handlist, in fact, has served to freshen his own memory and, once freshened, it was able to produce other information.

This Handlist is largely based on the collection of the compiler though, obviously, much information has been obtained from other sources. So many have been ready to help, and on both sides of the Atlantic. The List does not mention a publication on Sugar, which was the work of Walter de la Mare in 1916, when he was employed for a short while by the Ministry of Food. Although it is known that this paper was written, the compiler has seen no copy of it. Neither was it felt fitting, at this stage, with one or two exceptions, to include periodicals in the List, but when a complete bibliography comes to be written, its compiler must not forget Walter de la Mare's contribution to The Choristers' Journal in 1889, when he was still a boy at St. Paul's Cathedral School, nor his very early stories in The Sketch (after 1895) and The Cornhill (1896-1897). The files of The Saturday Westminster, The Bookman, and The Times Literary Supplement from 1908 onwards will also have to be thoroughly scoured. Poems set to music, and pieces from Walter de la Mare's books reprinted in other books have also been excluded. Foreign editions are not mentioned, except when they are first editions or editions seriously amended. However, it should be noted that many of his books have been published in French, German, Danish, Spanish, Italian, Swedish, and Japanese.

It is realised that this Handlist is a modest beginning, but it chief merit lies in the fact that, to the best knowledge of its compiler, it is unique.
