About the author

Arthur D. Howden (Arthur Douglas Howden) Smith

1887–1945

Best remembered for vigorous historical adventures and sea stories, this American writer also lived a life that seems pulled from one of his own books. Journalism, war reporting, and a deep love of history gave his fiction its restless energy and vivid sense of place.
