The Curved Saber The Official Harold Lamb Site

Early Magazine Work A more accurate title for this section would be "Early Work Preceding and Contiguous with the first years of Lamb's Writing for Adventure," but as that wouldn't fit on a navigation button and sounds cumbersome, I didn't use it. "Marching Sands" and "Caravan of the Dead" were both printed in hardback by Appleton (as Marching Sands and House of the Falcon, respectively). In general Lamb's early magazine work lacked the fire and originality found in his Adventure stories, but there may be some undiscovered gems among these.   ARGOSY   1919 The Red String Jan 11   One Share of Kentucky Pete Feb 1   The Kite Feb 7   Yellow Elephants March 8   Two Hands on One March 29   Profit May 3   A Chinaman's Chance May 24   Twenty Points Up June 21   The Sunwise Turn Sept. 6   Chambeau's Investment Oct. 11   Marching Sands (serial) Oct. 25 1920 An Equivalent in Cash Feb. 21   The Eyes of Ya Long June 5   Caravan of the Dead (serial) June 12 1921 The Jumping Off Place April 16         ALL-STORY   1917 Somewhere in the Pacific April 28   Expert Proficiency June 23   Russell's 1917 Model July 7 1918 The Lake of Long Dreams Dec. 7 1919 McKechnie's Trade Jan. 11   Channa's Tabu Jan. 25   Between the Devil and ---- Feb. 8   Takings and Leavings May 3   Ships and Sharks Dec.20         SHORT STORIES   1921 The Make-Weight Sept. 24 1924 The Buffalo-Bear Nov. 18 [Welcome] [Biography] [Techniques] [Early Mags] [Adventure] [Adv by Issue] [Adv by Title] [Adv by Series] [Adv Standalones] [Khlit] [Later Mags] [Novels] [Histories] [What's New] [Links]   [Email]
