Note: It is important to bear in mind the debate about the canon of Defoe's works, or at least to know that there is a debate! J.A. Moore's A Checklist of the Writings of Daniel Defoe (2nd ed. 1971) was, until recently, generally taken as the authoritative guide, but Furbank and Owen's Canonisation of Defoe disproved many of the works previously thought to be Defoe's. Their A Critical Bibliography of Daniel Defoe (London 1998) is now most commonly referred to as the authority on the canon, outlining works definitely and 'probably' by Defoe.
