Non-fiction works[edit]
You added a note that Ms Warder is the author of three non-fiction works on Hemochromatosis. I can only find evidence of one: The Bronze Killer. Can you provide titles (and preferable ISBNs) for the other titles? WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 20:18, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
- Check out Amazon.com. There are also several of her ebooks on the subject. I'll send you the ISBNS for all.
Murella (talk) 22:03, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
Other books on the subject of Hemochromatosis: The Bronze Killer ISBN 0-88925-885-6 (Now a collector’s item). Iron... The other side of the story! (Circa 1980) No ISBN. Sold through pharmacies to raise awareness (and raise funds.) The ISBN you have is for THE BRONZE KILLER:NEW EDITION,which includes an Epilogue (written after the death of Tom Warder) as well as much updated information based on the most recent reseach. As I said, there are many e-Books on Amazon, but it is difficult to find ISBNs for any of them. Murella (talk) 23:18, 1 June 2011 (UTC) Found the title of one e-Book so far - "More About The Bronze Killer." There are also more Afrikaans non-fiction titles, but I am wondering whether it is necessary to go that far. Murella (talk) 23:40, 1 June 2011 (UTC) Herewith another non-fiction book
On the subject of Hemochromatosis: Iron overload --- More about "The Bronze Killer"--- Essays published 2009. Kindle. ASIN: B005GLL7GY
MORE Afrikaans Titles:
Klei-Voete 1953 Die Goeie Hoop – Uitgewers (Edms.) Bpk. Johannesburg Deur Sonskyn en Skaduwee – Dagbreek Boekkring (Book Club) Die Maatstok 1963 - Dagbreek Boekkring Hart Sonder Liefde (Date obscured) - Dagbreek Boekkring Sorry I don't know how to list them in the form in which they appear in the article. NB1. I can provide you with a link to a SA library maintained by Rhodes University if you require it.
NB2. About Maple Lane. ...When the owner -- Phil Hood - approached me it was a totally different company. There was a time when it was a distributor of maps (as well as books) but then went into making films and has now branched out into something else. Unfortunately the old references are no longer on the Net. In the case with Dagbreek Boekkring etc.,The Internet did not exist in those days and now many of the old SA publishers are also offering "self-publishing" services. NB3. I thank WikiDan for the email, but was really confused by the instructions. I'm also so discouraged now that I am wondering whether I should pursue the project any further. I shall, however, post some of the media references expected today, regarding her Lifetime Achievement Award. I am told that they will also be featured on Facebook and Twitter.
Murella (talk) 19:13, 2 June 2011 (UTC) Re: Self-publication. An interesting link to Maple Lane Books is found in phil@the-westcoaster.comThe image is very small but some of Marie's covers can be seen, and also a connection to Maple Lane as well as the statement: Retail orders for the books will also be accepted by snail mail, email, fax, and online from ($14.95 Can plus shipping and handling.)
"Iron... the other side of the story! and both versions of the Bronze Killer were self-published (as can be seen in
ABC Bookworld http://www.abcbookworld.com/browse_authors.php because she was so desperate to get the word out that Hemochromatosis is the most common genetic disorder. Murella (talk) 06:27, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
Herewith the citation for her Lifetime Achievement Award. http://www.delta-optimist.com/health/Lifetime+award+author/4886690/story.html I tried to insert it but I don't think I was successful. Also, The Bronze Killer mentioned in the article is OLD and, as mentioned before is now a collectors' item. There are two different books. The other is THE BRONZE KILLER:NEW EDITION - ISBN 09687358-0-0 and that is the one to be found on amazon.com
Murella (talk) 16:54, 3 June 2011 (UTC) A usefup link to the publication of The Bronze Killer:"NEW EDITION" by Imperani Publishers, which I have mentioned... http://www.amazon.com/Bronze-Killer-New-Marie-Warder/dp/0968735800 If you "Search inside."
Murella (talk) 23:23, 3 June 2011 (UTC) While I am still hoping beyond hope that you will insert the info about the only readily available version of The Bronze Killer (seen above) I think I have now completed this article by posting a new detail which I was able to find among the newspaper cuttingd etc. in Marie's scrapbook. One - which I know you will never accept - describes her as the "most completely bilingual person" in South Africa, explaining that it was for that reaon that she was employed to do translations for what was then known as Squibb Laboratories - and that is how she came to be familiar with medical terminology, which later proved useful when she wrote about Hemochromatosis.
WRITING CAREER It is common knowledge that Marie Warder sold her first article at the age of thirteen but not as widely known that when she was twelve and bed-ridden, she wrote a play used in the SABC radio program 'Young Ideas.' It is also not know that her first novels were written in longhand and that the very first of them - sent by mail to Hodder and Staughton in London - never reached its destination as the ship carrying it was torpedoed.
Murella (talk) 22:31, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
Added detail about her being the founder of the IAHS. Murella (talk) 17:48, 7 June 2011 (UTC) Murella (talk) 02:57, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

My reason for writing today is to explain that the image of Tom Warder -- which I tried to add to Marie Warder's page - is in Commons under the title: Tom Warder 19.
The Volunteer Medal of Honor is not copyrighted either. Local newspapers and a number of her friends (including me) have copies, and it was taken by Tom Warder who is now deceased.
Murella (talk) 19:08, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
I have uploaded the picture - Tom Warder 19) missing on Marie Warder's page because she finds it difficult to do that with a voice-recognition device. It is already in Commons. Murella (talk) 18:26, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
She would be honored if the medal picture was also added to Commons.

I have always known this, but have have only just read about the ancestry of Frederick Abinger Warder on Wikipedia. [[1]]
What a pity the article about him was deleted.
Murella (talk) 18:55, 2 May 2013 (UTC) I'm giving up now,It seems the nothing can restore the page about Frederick Abinger Warder - which, to my mind was a most tragic and ill-advised move on the part of Wikipedia editors.
