Putting a gloss on a glossary
 
Dan Davin’s glossary to his World War II short story collection The Salamander and the Fire was pithy, informative and occasionally amusing, but its choices were arbitrary and sometimes a little off target. It needed enlargement and sharper definitions. This talk explores one of the minor but fascinating aspects of publishing short stories with a glossary.
