Dodo Collections brings you another classic from Jacobs W.W, ‘Deep Waters, the Entire Collection.’

 

Included in this collection are "Paying Off," "Made to Measure," "Sam's Ghost," "Bedridden," "The Convert," "Husbandry," "Family Cares," "The Winter Offensive," "The Substitute," "Striking Hard," and "Dirty Work."

 

William Wymark Jacobs was an English author of short stories and novels. Quite popular in his lifetime primarily for his amusing maritime tales of life along the London docks (many of them humorous as well as sardonic in tone). Today he is best known for a few short works of horror fiction. One being "The Monkey's Paw"(published 1902). It has in its own right become a well-known and widely anthologized classic. 

 

In 1879, Jacobs began work as a clerk in the civil service, in the Post Office Savings Bank, and by 1885 he had his first short story published. His road to success was relatively slow: Arnold Bennett writing in 1898 was astonished that Jacobs turned down the sum of £500 for six short stories. Jacobs was financially secure enough to be able to leave the Post Office in 1899.
