Non-Nero Wolfe Books and Story Compilations

Rex Stout lead a long, productive and complex life with a wide variety of careers. This chart (and the cover art section) attempt to chronicle his sporadic, non-Nero Wolfe, fiction writing careers. In addition to fiction writing, of course, Mr. Stout spent a great deal of his time verbally championing a wide variety of political causes. But that's a different page!
