A Bibliography in Progress

A: MAGAZINE FICTION

[[Compiler's Note: It is an oddity of sorts that Clarence Herbert New, one of the more prolific early 20th Century magazine writers, wrote only two novels (as far as I've been able to confirm). One was published in the February 1897 LIPPINCOTT'S MAGAZINE; the other was an 1895 hardcover novel, detailed below, but there are hints several more may have been published during that decade. And although he wrote well over 400 short stories New had but a single collection of stories published in book form.

The bulk of his fiction appeared in BLUE BOOK magazine, where, for 25 years (1908-1934), he had the distinction of appearing in almost every issue of that magazine, with a total of 396 stories, including one serial novel. Only H. Bedford-Jones with 370 stories and 7 book-length novels and serials published over a greater span of years (1915-1948) came close. Like HB-J, New often had two stories (and series) running in the same issue, requiring him to use a pseudonym.

His longest and most famous series was the "Diplomatic Free Lance," which some critics have called the longest novel ever written. It comprised 280 stories and nearly 3,000,000 words and featured the same characters from the 7th story to the end. Popular fiction historians also hail this series as popularizing the international espionage genre. After New's death in January 1933, BLUE BOOK had 16 stories in inventory, which they continued to publish monthly through the May 1934 issue. Six were "Free Lance" stories and two were non-series stories. The remaining 8 were evenly split between two new series characters: Sir Edward Coffin, an insurance investigator, and a Dr. Adams. Shortly before New's death BLUE BOOK announced that Culpeper Zandtt would be returning to the magazine's pages. I suspect his name was to have bylined these two series. However, the magazine decided to publish them under New's name and not his Zandtt pseudonym.

Clarence Herbert New used two pseudonyms during his lifetime--Culpeper Zandtt and Stephen Hopkins Orcutt. The Zandtt name was taken from New's first BLUE BOOK series, "The International Bureau," (1908) in which he was a writer and war correspondent. Four years later New adopted the name as one of his principal pseudonyms. Van Zandt Wheeler, a possible third pseudonym, came to light recently during this bibliographical expedition and has been included provisionally. One final point: It should be noted that 13 issues did not list the story titles on the contents pages or at the beginning of those stories; they provided merely a one sentence blurb of New's story and the series they belonged to.

Sometime in the 1940s, when BLUE BOOK went to a bed-sheet sized format, and reprinted a New story belonging to the "Diplomatic Free Lance" series entitled "The Anchored Island." It is, without question, one of the "Untitled" stories in this bibliography, but it will take time to track down the original publication date by matching the opening paragraphs. Possibly BLUE BOOK created the title for that reprint or took it from the editorial index card. Special thanks to Peter Ruber, Mike Ashley and Doug Ellis for their assistance in preparing this index.]]
