Autorenporträt
Harry Collingwood was the pseudonym of William Joseph Cosens Lancaster (1851–1922), a British author famed for his nautical and adventure fiction. Collingwood's literary career was influenced by his own maritime adventures, as well as the long-standing literary tradition of the sea tale, which can be traced back to Homer's 'Odyssey.' His works were particularly popular among young readers, capturing the imaginations of the Victorian and Edwardian audience with vivid descriptions of naval life and far-flung voyages. 'Turned Adrift,' one of the many titles penned by Collingwood, epitomizes his specialty in writing about the sea and the experiences of sailors. His works are characterized by meticulous attention to the technical details of seamanship, alongside the thrilling escapades and moral fortitude of his characters. Collingwood's stories often featured young protagonists exemplifying courage and resourcefulness, contributing to the genre of juvenile literature while appealing to a sense of adventure across a broader audience. Today, Collingwood's books remain a testament to the enduring appeal of maritime literature and continue to be celebrated for their adventure narratives and precise portrayals of seafaring life.
