Autor

Harry Collingwood, the pseudonym of William Joseph Cosens Lancaster (1851-1922), was a prolific British author renowned for his adventure novels often set at sea. Lancaster adopted the Collingwood name in tribute to Vice-Admiral Cuthbert Collingwood, a significant figure in the Royal Navy and a compatriot of Admiral Horatio Nelson. His literary career began during the heyday of Victorian nautical fiction, a genre that found eager readers amidst an empire deeply connected to naval prowess and exploration. 'The Log of the Flying Fish' is one of Collingwood's esteemed works, showcasing his creative blend of adventure and speculative fiction by featuring an advanced aerodynamic vessel exploring uncharted and exotic locales. His writing is noted for its meticulous detail to seamanship and the accuracy of naval terminology, which can be attributed to his background in engineering and a passion for the sea. Collingwood's novels often included heroic characters, moral integrity, and the rip-roaring excitement of adventurous voyages, which appealed to the young and the young at heart. His works were part of the fabric of maritime literature that included the likes of Robert Louis Stevenson and Captain Frederick Marryat, helping to shape the genre for future generations.
