The Collected Works of Ambrose Bierce, Volume IV

Ambrose Bierce · 1910

A collected edition, not a first printing. Volume IV of the twelve-volume Neale Collected Works; its sections are Shapes of Clay, Some Ante-Mortem Epitaphs and The Scrap Heap, so it reprints the 1903 Shapes of Clay and enlarges it. Assign ran after that 1903 volume, so only the poems the 1903 scan does not contain are assigned here; the rest sit under shapes-of-clay and keep its earlier date. date_note and date_uncertain below say so on every poem released from here.

Numbers rank the poems whose position in the book is known; they are not page numbers.
