"The Mysterious Ship" (Short Version) by H.P. Lovecraft
1 year ago
9
This story was written by Lovecraft when he was 12 years old! Four years on and he is still having trouble spelling the word 'excite' for some reason ;-)
Interesting that so many of just childhood tales are maritime in nature. I wonder if that is his Anglophilia appearing at so young an age, since the UK was still the dominant naval power at the time, or if something else is going on with that.
By 1902, very many attempts had been made at reaching the North Pole, but success (or at least claims of success) at getting there was still a few years away.
