William Clark Russell wrote more than forty nautical novels. Immensely popular in their time, his works were admired by contemporary writers, such as Conan Doyle, Stevenson and Meredith, while Swinburne, considered him 'the greatest master of the sea, living or dead'. Based on extensive archival research, Nash explores this remarkable career.
'offers a valuable account of a neglected figure in Victorian adventure literature and a rich, detailed survey of the Victorian industry of popular fiction.' Review 19
