  • "During his life Housman was best known for his plays and for several volumes of fantasy and sf stories, including [list of five, 1897 to 1952]". --SFE3 biographical entry by John Clute This is second-published of the five, although the title "novel" was published separately and earliest. It is implied that these five comprise stories clearly for adults in contrast to A Farm in Fairyland (1894) and some other collections. (Four published 1894 to 1904 are covered in The Encyclopedia of Fantasy, eds. Clute and Grant.)
  • "Later stories tend to dither somewhat, though his various volumes include Satires, Parodies and Fables of interest. These volumes include: [list of six, 1920 to 1952]". --SFE: Encyclopedia of Fantasy (1997) (This one is first-published of the six and is named without comment except that one story is a novel. See Gods and Their Makers.)
