The following was sent to me by Geoff Loker of the University of Toronto
Department of Computer Science.  The listings he furnished are from a book
entitled "Shadow Man:  the Life of Dashiell Hammett" by Richard Lyman.  What 
is interesting is that the book titles are for the most part different, whether
these are Canadian books or what I do not know.  What is more interesting is
that they list story titles not published to my knowledge in the States.  A
comparison of story titles shows a totally different arrangement, etc.  Since
these were published from 1944 on, they may reflect pre-McCarthy era before
Hammett was blacklisted as a Communist.  Any way, for what they are worth:

A couple of other books of his (that fall into miscellaneous) were:

Creeps By Night [John Day 1931] -- an anthology of wierd stories, edited
     by Hammett

Secret Agent X-9, Books One & Two [David McKay 1934] -- a two-volume
     collection of his comic strip

The Battle of the Aleutians [Adak, Alaska: Intelligence Section, Field
     Force Headquarters, Adak, 1944] by Hammett & Robert Colodny

The bibliography in Hammett's biography also had a list of his magazine
publications -- articles, stories, etc. 


Can anyone else (Evelyn Leeper or ?) help out with what these books were/are?
Are there in fact some unpublished stories in the U.S. versions?
