List of works by H. C. McNeile

 * Nominator(s): SchroCat (talk) 21:58, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

H. C. McNeile is one of the forgotten giants of the golden age of British detective fiction, although he is now more likely to be remembered for the rather odious views on race and anti-Semitism he included in his stories from time to time. Best known for his Bulldog Drummond stories, McNeile created the forerunner to later thriller heroes—Drummond was both a proto-Bond and Biggles—but he also wrote extensively about the First World War, while serving on the front line. He managed to write 80 short stories while serving on the Western Front and continued writing after the war. - SchroCat (talk) 21:58, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment – In the third table, the Ref column shouldn't be sortable. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:14, 7 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Well spotted! Now sorted. Many thanks - SchroCat (talk) 04:57, 8 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Support I made a small copy edit to the lead as it seemed a bit clunky due to a series of full stops. I merged one and deleted "these were then collected together." It seemed a bit redundant when the sentence goes onto say  "and published as collections through Hodder & Stoughton."  Feel free to revert if you don't agree.  The article is in great shape! --   Cassianto Talk    13:32, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
 * No, your edit is great - many thanks for the tweak and the support: both are much appreciated. - SchroCat (talk) 22:03, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
