  You cannot reverse the order of post display by clicking a link. You cannot picky choosy display except by creating sticky posts.

  Blogs are essentially a reverse chronological order publishing tool wherein the most recent published post will display on top. You cannot change this order on a free hosted WordPress.com blog. It’s designed to serve your visitors as they come to read the most recent posts and will not be inclined to trawl through hundreds of posts to locate it.

  See here for the option of creating a book-like structure > http://en.support.wordpress.com/write-a-book/ Perhaps that will work for you.

  Or you could use a single sticky post as an index page > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/#sticky-posts

  You can hand-edit every date/time of every post to put them in whatever order you like, but it’s laborious and you’ll forget at least once.

  Good point. I forgot to include that we can falsify every date-stamp on every post before publishing.
