W. Clark Russell Bücher
William Clark Russell war ein beliebter amerikanischer Schriftsteller, der für seine Seefahrerromane und Horrorgeschichten bekannt war. Seine achtjährige Dienstzeit als Seemann verschaffte ihm umfassende Erfahrungen, die er in seine produktive literarische Arbeit einfließen ließ. Seine Werke, von denen einige zu ihrer Zeit große Beliebtheit erlangten, schildern lebendig Abenteuer und Heldentum auf See. Moderne Kritiker bemerken Ähnlichkeiten zwischen seinen Horrorelementen und den Erzählungen von William Hope Hodgson.
