Is there a way to find out in what anthologies this story appears?

The story I’m thinking of is “The Squaw,” by Bram Stoker. It appeared in an anthology of horror short stories. It was a substantial collection, maybe close to a thousand pages, and in my edition, the cover was bright red. I lost the book close to a decade ago and I’ve recently been itching to re-discover it.

Is there a good online resource for researching something like this?

The Internet Speculative Fiction Database (www.isfdb.org) is a good resource

For “The Squaw” it lists well over a dozen places the story has appeared http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?83926

Here you go.

EDIT: Or what AndyL said.

Awesome. What a great site. I think I found the collection, too.

Thanks!

Besides those appearances in print, I’d like to point out that the story was adapted as a comic ('graphic novel" style), with a script by by Archie Goodwin and art by Reed Crandall in one of the Warren magazines, Eerie issue #19 in December of 1968. (Also in Creepy #13 in Febriary of 1967)

The Wilson short story index has long been the librarians’ go-to resource for all genres. The on-line version is not available to the unwashed masses, but any public or academic library will have access to it.

Another good reference for this kind of thing: Amazon.com. Type in the title and author of a short story and you’ll be connected to books for sale containing them.

It’s not quite as thorough as the Internet Speculative Fiction Database, however. Thanks to Andy L and Chronos, I was able to quickly find the anthology. Amazon didn’t have it. I’m assuming because it’s out-of-print. It didn’t have any of the other titles under which the collection had been published, like The Giant Book of Horror Stories, either.

Also, very cool - I was able to find this edition of Night Cry. When I was twelve or thirteen, I had been given a copy that was missing the cover. I lost it before I was able to finish reading the collection, and had from time to time had occasion to remember the stories I had read, but none of their titles. Being able to look through the editions and see the stories they contained jogged my memory.
