Lluís Maria Soler y Puig

Available sources suggest he was a Catalan author active in the late 19th century, and he is associated with the book Mariners catalans cèlebres, published in 1882. Catalog and digital-library records consistently connect his name with that work, which centers on notable Catalan seafarers.

The online trail for his life is quite limited, so many personal details cannot be confirmed with confidence from the sources I found. What does come through clearly is his place in Catalan-language print culture, where his name appears in library, public-domain, and text-archive records rather than in a full modern biographical profile.

Because the documentation is sparse, he is best introduced as an author known today mainly through preserved editions of his writing, especially that maritime-themed work.
