The Ocean was a short-lived Munsey pulp published in 1907-08 that specialized in sea stories. This collection reprints 20 of the best stories from the 11 issue run. Included are stories of peril at sea, mutinies, shipwrecks, ferocious weather, a ghost story, even an early scientific-romance, "In the Land of To-Morrow." Over 30 pages of nonfiction material is also included: a history of The Ocean, and extensive profiles of editor, Bob Davis, and the motley crew of authors who contributed to the magazine--and this collection. |
