ETA: We already have a couple of "Du Maurier, George".
When I searched the book list, before I started work on Peter Ibbetson, I searched for du Maurier, and couldn't find any books by du Maurier. I searched for Du Maurier tonight and found The Martian. Could you tell me please what the other book was that you found, Jellby? And could you tell me where I can find the guidelines you mention?

For what it is worth the State Library system in Tasmania sorts books by Daphne du Maurier as Maurier, Daphne du. They don't have any books by George du Maurier.
