I'm de-lurking in order to ask for help tracking down some
information about Hammett's Red Harvest. Specifically, I'm
trying to find out which chapters in Red Harvest
correspond
(approximately) to the earlier stories in Black Mask.
I've learned from the Rara-Avis Hammett Bibliography that Red
Harvest comprises these four Black Mask stories:
"The Cleansing of Poisonville"
"Crime Wanted - Male or Female"
"Dynamite"
"The 19th Murder"
I've read elsewhere that the first story ("The Cleansing of
Poisonville") roughly corresponds to chapters 1-7 of Red
Harvest, but I can't seem to dig up similar information about
the remaining three stories. Does anyone know, or could
anyone point me in the direction of sources I might
consult?
Thanks!
Christina
