+TALBOT MUNDY
+
+BIBLIO
+
+
+MATERIALS TOWARD A BIBLIOGRAPHY
+OF THE WORKS
+OF
+TALBOT MUNDY
+
+
+Edited by BRADFORD M. DAY
+
+
+
+
+
+A Bit of His Life
+
+
+Talbot Mundy was born in London on April 23, 1879. He was educated at
+Rugby, and served nearly ten years, beginning in 1900, as a government
+official in Africa and India. While in India, he wandered all over the
+sub-continent on horseback, and even into Tibet. Eastern occult lore
+first attracted, then fascinated, his active and unorthodox mind. Mundy
+absorbed all he could learn of the Indian beliefs.
+
+Government service next brought him to Africa where he studied
+first-hand the nature magic of many of the tribes and cultures of East
+Africa. His quest for more information on this subject impelled him to
+travel extensively through Egypt and the Near East and even into parts
+of Arabia. This was truly adventurous at the time, but only in character
+with the man who killed dozens of lions and successfully hunted for
+ivory.
+
+Mundy visited Australia, and Mexico as far south as Yucutan. He first
+arrived in the United States in 1911, and liked the country so much that
+he decided to stay and become a citizen.
+
+Mundy quickly turned his energies to writing, and an article, "Pig
+Sticking in India," was accepted and published in the April 1911 issue
+of Adventure Magazine, itself only a few months old. Another article and
+his first story, "The Phantom Battery" soon appeared. For years
+thereafter, Adventure had short stories, novelettes, novels, and serials
+by this master teller of tales in most of the issues that were printed.
+
+The motif and locale of the stories and very infrequent articles usually
+stemmed from the areas, people, and occult knowledge previously
+mentioned. The manly art of self defense must have occupied some of
+Mundy's attention during his early career. A series of stories about
+Billy Blain, pugilist, appeared under the pen-name of Walter Gait,
+beginning with the February 1912 issue of Adventure. Two articles were
+also printed under this pseudonym.
+
+Scribners of New York produced his first book, "Rung Ho" in 1914, then
+apparently forgot him. In 1916, Bobbs-Merrill of Indianapolis published
+one of his most famous stories, "King--of the Khyber Rifles," and
+Cassell and Company of London brought out "The Winds of the World." Both
+were well received, and Mundy's career to a moderate renown was on its
+way.
+
+In succeeding years he continued to write for Adventure and other
+magazines, most of the stories being snapped up by various book
+publishers. Many of the books were reprinted in several editions by
+different companies, and, confusing to a bibliophile, the English
+publications ware often re-titled.
+
+During the 1920's Mundy bought a part of the Point Loma estate in
+California, called The Cliffs. He settled there for several years and
+became a member of the Theosophical Society presided over by Katherine
+Tingley. A half-dozen of his books were written there and, "Om; the
+Secret of Ahbor Valley," shows the influence of this occult society.
+
+He contributed many articles to Tingley's theosophical magazines, her
+most noted publication being the Theosophical Path. After her death in
+1929, Mundy left Point Loma but always retained his interest in and
+sympathy with Theosophy.
+
+Mundy continued writing almost to the time of his death on August 5,
+1940. In all, forty-nine books were produced under his name, thirty-nine
+of which were original works. At least one-hundred and fifty stories and
+articles appeared in magazines; most of these, perhaps nearly all, are
+listed in this bibliography. None of the theosophical articles are
+included here, though, as the intent of this listing is to stress his
+mastery of the fantasy-high adventure tale.
+
+It is still too soon to properly evaluate Mundy's importance in the
+stream of literature. His style of writing, choice of language, is
+smoothly readable. One "fault," if such it be, is a sometimes too
+carefully contrived buildup to plot situations. This careful skill did
+result in glowing word-pictures and living characters.
+
+Considerable assistance was given on this project by friends and fellow
+enthusiasts. My grateful thanks to all as they come to mind:
+
+
+Dr. J. Lloyd Eaton--Berkeley, California
+John C. Nitka--Richmond Hill, New York
+James A. Strand--Portland, Oregon
+Walter A. Carrithers, Jr.--Fresno, California
+Robert Resch--Reading, Pennsylvania
+Richard Witter, Donald Grant, and some others
+for appreciated words of caution and advice.
+
+The following list must not be supposed the final and
+authoritative word on this subject.

+
+His sagas; with a story sequence of various characters
+by Dr. J. Lloyd Eaton
+
+
+Talbot Mundy was a prolific writer of historical tales and stories of
+adventure-intrigue, his particular forte being tales of India and the
+Near East. Twelve of his novels are listed in THE CHECKLIST OF FANTASTIC
+LITERATURE, with themes of mysticism, black versus white magic,
+lost-race, and even true science fiction. Many others of his stories are
+borderline fantastics.
+
+In the field of fantastic literature his works are highly prized (often
+highly priced, also) and many such readers find, possibly to their
+surprise, that they also enjoy his other stories. This may be due in
+some part to the fact that Mundy used the same characters over and over
+again, in novels in which each played the lead and as sub-characters in
+other novels. One keeps meeting old friends.
+
+This leads to one difficulty in reading Mundy, however. If one is going
+to meet these characters, it is much more enjoyable to watch them
+develop from birth, so to speak--and not vice versa, like coming into a
+theatre in the middle of the picture. But, a reading sequence is a real
+difficulty. Each story is complete in itself, but the characters are
+re-shuffled into various combinations and any one of them may, and does,
+strike off into a novel of his own, only to reappear at a later date in
+some combination with other such characters. It is confusing, to say the
+least. To add to the confusion, all or nearly all of Mundy's stories
+first appeared in magazines, largely in Adventure, but later in Argosy.
+As his popularity grew, his older stories were republished in book form,
+as well as each of his new novels, so that the date of publication of
+his books means nothing as far as reading chronology is concerned.
+
+Before going any further, it may be interesting to digress a bit, and
+consider some of his earlier stories in Adventure Magazine, and more
+particularly as they apply to his books. No attempt is being made to
+give a complete listing of his magazine stories here. Adventure Magazine
+began publication in November 1910, but the earliest issue that I have
+for reference is that of August 1911. This contains a short story by
+Mundy, "The Phantom Battery." By this time he was publishing five to
+eight short stories per year. These early stories were mostly about the
+British Army and the most important was his "The Soul of A Regiment,"
+(February 1913) a tale of native troops in the ill-fated first
+expedition against the Dervishes in Egypt, with a surprise, terrific,
+ending. This story was published as a book, "The Soul of A Regiment,"
+(Alex Dulfer, San Francisco, 1925) and was anthologized by Arthur
+Sullivant Hoffman in "Adventure's Beet Stories--1926" (Doran, New York,
+1926). It was reprinted in Adventure Magazine in April 1917 and followed
+next month be a sequel, "The Damned Old Nigger." Three of his early
+novelettes (1913), "Hookum Hai," "For the Salt He Had Eaten," and
+"Machassan Ah," will be found in the book "Told in the East,"
+(Bobbs-Merrill, Indianapolis, 1920). The first two concern the Sepoy
+Revolt and the third is a humorous story of the British Navy. All are
+good tales. The characters in the latter appear also in "An Arabian
+Night" (Adventure, November 1913). The first of his Indian hillman type
+stories is probably the short novel "The Letter of His Orders"
+(Adventure, September 1913). His first serial, "For the Peace of India"
+(Adventure, February to April 1914) was published in the book "Rung Ho"
+(Scribners, New York, 1914) and is another good story of the Sepoy
+Rebellion. In January and July 1914, appeared two stories about the
+Princess Yasmini, a character that he used extensively in later
+novels--as the lead, with King, with Ranjoor Singh, and in the
+Jimgrim-Ramsden saga. The first of his sagas (Dick Anthony of Arran) was
+never published in book form. This series included eight novelettes and
+short novels, enough to fill four or five books, and appeared in
+successive issues of Adventure Magazine, beginning August 1914. These
+were very good adventure tales of a Scotch gentleman fighting for Iran
+against Old Russia, but are rather dated now. Following this, most of
+his novels appeared first in a magazine and were then immediately
+published in book form.
+
+This brings us to the "Jimgrim-Ramsden Saga," the greatest of them all.
+If the early (and later) development of the associated characters is
+added, it continues through twenty-one books (twenty-two novels), and
+fifteen books (sixteen novels) for the actual Jimgrim-Ramsden stories.
+This is not counting some eighteen novelettes and novels found in
+magazines only.
+
+This Saga, in the main, is the story of James Schuyler Grim, (Jimgrim) a
+remarkable characterization, beginning as an American "Lawrence in
+Arabia" and evolving into a human but unapproachable high priest of the
+occult. There is Jeff Ramsden, the strong man and his closest friend,
+who with the Australian, Jeremy Ross, make up the triumvirate of Grim,
+Ross, and Ramsden, with their henchman Narayan Singh, the indomitable
+Sikh. (Who cuts throats with an outward thrust.) Later the
+multimillionaire, Meldrum Strange, hires them to fight evil. Then,
+Athelbert King, a hero of novels in his own right, joins up, making a
+quartet. Other characters from Mundy's novels appear--the seductive and
+dangerous Princess Yasmini; Cotswold Ommony, the forester of India; the
+Babu, Chullunder Ghose; the Gunga Sahib, and O'Hara.

+
+A Bit of His Life
+
+
+Talbot Mundy was born in London on April 23, 1879. He was educated at
+Rugby, and served nearly ten years, beginning in 1900, as a government
+official in Africa and India. While in India, he wandered all over the
+sub-continent on horseback, and even into Tibet. Eastern occult lore
+first attracted, then fascinated, his active and unorthodox mind. Mundy
+absorbed all he could learn of the Indian beliefs.
+
+Government service next brought him to Africa where he studied
+first-hand the nature magic of many of the tribes and cultures of East
+Africa. His quest for more information on this subject impelled him to
+travel extensively through Egypt and the Near East and even into parts
+of Arabia. This was truly adventurous at the time, but only in character
+with the man who killed dozens of lions and successfully hunted for
+ivory.
+
+Mundy visited Australia, and Mexico as far south as Yucutan. He first
+arrived in the United States in 1911, and liked the country so much that
+he decided to stay and become a citizen.
+
+Mundy quickly turned his energies to writing, and an article, "Pig
+Sticking in India," was accepted and published in the April 1911 issue
+of Adventure Magazine, itself only a few months old. Another article and
+his first story, "The Phantom Battery" soon appeared. For years
+thereafter, Adventure had short stories, novelettes, novels, and serials
+by this master teller of tales in most of the issues that were printed.
+
+The motif and locale of the stories and very infrequent articles usually
+stemmed from the areas, people, and occult knowledge previously
+mentioned. The manly art of self defense must have occupied some of
+Mundy's attention during his early career. A series of stories about
+Billy Blain, pugilist, appeared under the pen-name of Walter Gait,
+beginning with the February 1912 issue of Adventure. Two articles were
+also printed under this pseudonym.
+
+Scribners of New York produced his first book, "Rung Ho" in 1914, then
+apparently forgot him. In 1916, Bobbs-Merrill of Indianapolis published
+one of his most famous stories, "King--of the Khyber Rifles," and
+Cassell and Company of London brought out "The Winds of the World." Both
+were well received, and Mundy's career to a moderate renown was on its
+way.
+
+In succeeding years he continued to write for Adventure and other
+magazines, most of the stories being snapped up by various book
+publishers. Many of the books were reprinted in several editions by
+different companies, and, confusing to a bibliophile, the English
+publications ware often re-titled.
+
+During the 1920's Mundy bought a part of the Point Loma estate in
+California, called The Cliffs. He settled there for several years and
+became a member of the Theosophical Society presided over by Katherine
+Tingley. A half-dozen of his books were written there and, "Om; the
+Secret of Ahbor Valley," shows the influence of this occult society.
+
+He contributed many articles to Tingley's theosophical magazines, her
+most noted publication being the Theosophical Path. After her death in
+1929, Mundy left Point Loma but always retained his interest in and
+sympathy with Theosophy.
+
+Mundy continued writing almost to the time of his death on August 5,
+1940. In all, forty-nine books were produced under his name, thirty-nine
+of which were original works. At least one-hundred and fifty stories and
+articles appeared in magazines; most of these, perhaps nearly all, are
+listed in this bibliography. None of the theosophical articles are
+included here, though, as the intent of this listing is to stress his
+mastery of the fantasy-high adventure tale.
+
+It is still too soon to properly evaluate Mundy's importance in the
+stream of literature. His style of writing, choice of language, is
+smoothly readable. One "fault," if such it be, is a sometimes too
+carefully contrived buildup to plot situations. This careful skill did
+result in glowing word-pictures and living characters.
+
+Considerable assistance was given on this project by friends and fellow
+enthusiasts. My grateful thanks to all as they come to mind:

+authoritative word on this subject.

+
+His sagas; with a story sequence of various characters
+by Dr. J. Lloyd Eaton
+
+
+Talbot Mundy was a prolific writer of historical tales and stories of
+adventure-intrigue, his particular forte being tales of India and the
+Near East. Twelve of his novels are listed in THE CHECKLIST OF FANTASTIC
+LITERATURE, with themes of mysticism, black versus white magic,
+lost-race, and even true science fiction. Many others of his stories are
+borderline fantastics.
+
+In the field of fantastic literature his works are highly prized (often
+highly priced, also) and many such readers find, possibly to their
+surprise, that they also enjoy his other stories. This may be due in
+some part to the fact that Mundy used the same characters over and over
+again, in novels in which each played the lead and as sub-characters in
+other novels. One keeps meeting old friends.
+
+This leads to one difficulty in reading Mundy, however. If one is going
+to meet these characters, it is much more enjoyable to watch them
+develop from birth, so to speak--and not vice versa, like coming into a
+theatre in the middle of the picture. But, a reading sequence is a real
+difficulty. Each story is complete in itself, but the characters are
+re-shuffled into various combinations and any one of them may, and does,
+strike off into a novel of his own, only to reappear at a later date in
+some combination with other such characters. It is confusing, to say the
+least. To add to the confusion, all or nearly all of Mundy's stories
+first appeared in magazines, largely in Adventure, but later in Argosy.
+As his popularity grew, his older stories were republished in book form,
+as well as each of his new novels, so that the date of publication of
+his books means nothing as far as reading chronology is concerned.
+
+Before going any further, it may be interesting to digress a bit, and
+consider some of his earlier stories in Adventure Magazine, and more
+particularly as they apply to his books. No attempt is being made to
+give a complete listing of his magazine stories here. Adventure Magazine
+began publication in November 1910, but the earliest issue that I have
+for reference is that of August 1911. This contains a short story by
+Mundy, "The Phantom Battery." By this time he was publishing five to
+eight short stories per year. These early stories were mostly about the
+British Army and the most important was his "The Soul of A Regiment,"
+(February 1913) a tale of native troops in the ill-fated first
+expedition against the Dervishes in Egypt, with a surprise, terrific,
+ending. This story was published as a book, "The Soul of A Regiment,"
+(Alex Dulfer, San Francisco, 1925) and was anthologized by Arthur
+Sullivant Hoffman in "Adventure's Beet Stories--1926" (Doran, New York,
+1926). It was reprinted in Adventure Magazine in April 1917 and followed
+next month be a sequel, "The Damned Old Nigger." Three of his early
+novelettes (1913), "Hookum Hai," "For the Salt He Had Eaten," and
+"Machassan Ah," will be found in the book "Told in the East,"
+(Bobbs-Merrill, Indianapolis, 1920). The first two concern the Sepoy
+Revolt and the third is a humorous story of the British Navy. All are
+good tales. The characters in the latter appear also in "An Arabian
+Night" (Adventure, November 1913). The first of his Indian hillman type
+stories is probably the short novel "The Letter of His Orders"
+(Adventure, September 1913). His first serial, "For the Peace of India"
+(Adventure, February to April 1914) was published in the book "Rung Ho"
+(Scribners, New York, 1914) and is another good story of the Sepoy
+Rebellion. In January and July 1914, appeared two stories about the
+Princess Yasmini, a character that he used extensively in later
+novels--as the lead, with King, with Ranjoor Singh, and in the
+Jimgrim-Ramsden saga. The first of his sagas (Dick Anthony of Arran) was
+never published in book form. This series included eight novelettes and
+short novels, enough to fill four or five books, and appeared in
+successive issues of Adventure Magazine, beginning August 1914. These
+were very good adventure tales of a Scotch gentleman fighting for Iran
+against Old Russia, but are rather dated now. Following this, most of
+his novels appeared first in a magazine and were then immediately
+published in book form.
+
+This brings us to the "Jimgrim-Ramsden Saga," the greatest of them all.
+If the early (and later) development of the associated characters is
+added, it continues through twenty-one books (twenty-two novels), and
+fifteen books (sixteen novels) for the actual Jimgrim-Ramsden stories.
+This is not counting some eighteen novelettes and novels found in
+magazines only.
+
+This Saga, in the main, is the story of James Schuyler Grim, (Jimgrim) a
+remarkable characterization, beginning as an American "Lawrence in
+Arabia" and evolving into a human but unapproachable high priest of the
+occult. There is Jeff Ramsden, the strong man and his closest friend,
+who with the Australian, Jeremy Ross, make up the triumvirate of Grim,
+Ross, and Ramsden, with their henchman Narayan Singh, the indomitable
+Sikh. (Who cuts throats with an outward thrust.) Later the
+multimillionaire, Meldrum Strange, hires them to fight evil. Then,
+Athelbert King, a hero of novels in his own right, joins up, making a
+quartet. Other characters from Mundy's novels appear--the seductive and
+dangerous Princess Yasmini; Cotswold Ommony, the forester of India; the
+Babu, Chullunder Ghose; the Gunga Sahib, and O'Hara.

+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
