MARGERY ALLINGHAM/MAXWELL MARCH:

This is Allingham's output, with year of publication, alternate titles (if any), Swedish titles, and the detective of the story. Quite a few short story collections (nos. 26-29) only appeared after Allingham's death. Nos. 30-33 are short stories that have not been collected in book-form. At the very end of the list (nos. 34-36) are the novels that were published under the pseudonym Maxwell March.
