    "William Clark Russell wrote more than forty nautical novels ... Based on extensive archival research, Nash explores this remarkable career, from Russell's early unsuccessful attempts to write 'female' sensation novels until he found his true métier. Illuminating such themes as gender ideology, the emergence of genre fiction and the influence of the marketplace on authorship, Nash places Russell's work at the centre of current debates on late Victorian literature and book history."--Publishers website
