Joseph Conrad
A nice edition of two classic Conrad stories. Includes 6 illustrations from an original Typhoon publication.
Typhoon is a classic sea yarn, possibly based upon Conrad's actual experience of seaman's life, and probably on a real incident aboard a steamer. It describes how Captain MacWhirr sails the SS Nan-Shan, a British-built steamer running under the Siamese flag, into a typhoon-a mature tropical cyclone of the northwestern part of the Pacific Ocean. "Youth" is an 1898 autobiographical short story by Joseph Conrad that depicts a young man's first journey to the East. It is narrated by Charles Marlow who is also the narrator of Lord Jim, Chance, and Heart of Darkness.
