The stories in this collection hearken back to some of W. W. Jacobs' favorite settings and milieus: ships at sea and the wharfs of London, where a misanthropic nightwatchman thinks back bitterly over his life while walking his rounds. Fans of Jacobs' most famous tale, "The Monkey's Paw," will be pleasantly surprised to discover the true breadth of his talent.
