A Voyage with Captain Dynamite

About the author

Available online sources confirm Charles Edward Rich as the author of A Voyage with Captain Dynamite, an adventure novel now preserved by Project Gutenberg. The story follows schoolboys on a hazardous sea journey and reflects the brisk, action-focused style popular in juvenile fiction of its era.

Beyond that publication record, reliable biographical details about Rich are hard to verify from the sources I could confirm here. No solid evidence turned up for dates, places, or a fuller life history, so it is safest to remember him as a little-documented author whose surviving work offers a glimpse of classic maritime adventure writing.
