  • This edition reprints in one volume most of (not all of, as it claims) the short stories from the "Complete Works" published in 1903 by M. Walter Dunne. The Dunne edition, which was compiled from uncredited translations of greatly varying competence, contains in addition to Maupassant's works, some sixty-five stories of spurious attribution. See Marvellous Maupassant for a discussion and a complete list of the spurious stories.
