Wolfe Pack -- Official Site of the Nero Wolfe Society

The Magazine Publications of the Wolfe Saga
& Alternate Titles Listing

To enhance income generation, Mr. Stout, as Archie's agent, arranged for the publication in Magazines of many of the novellas, prior to their release in book format.

In addition, the Nero Wolfe saga was reprinted throughout the world and some foreign printings were "re-titled". We have included those British titles that confound the collector!

Acknowledgments:

Peter Darrel compiled the following magazine publication listing of the Nero Wolfe saga.
Jesse Strater assembled the Alternate Titles Listing at the bottom of this page.
Dan Augustine compiled a similar listing that we used to update these listings.

Thanks Dan, Peter, and Jesse!
