A brief exploration, anticipating Bates's 1941 The Modern Short Story, in which he discusses the absence of English short story writers until after World War I, when "for the first time in English literature the short-story became something more than a novel in miniature."

In Lovat Dickson's Magazine (February 1934, v. 2 no. 2, pp. 145-148, attached).
