About the Author
Irish-born Henry De Vere Stacpoole (1863-1951) served as a ship's doctor for more than 40 years, during which time he visited the South Pacific Islands. Stacpoole parlayed his knowledge of exotic locales into his books, which include The Cruise of the King Fisher: A Tale of Deep-Sea Adventure, The Beach of Dreams, In Blue Waters, and many others.
In addition to his work as an illustrator of classics, Hungarian-born artist Willy Pogány (1882-1955) served as an art director on several Hollywood films, including Fashions of 1934 and Dames. He was also an author and teacher whose instructive manuals include Dover's Drawing Lessons.
From the Back Cover

But with the passing of time, the innocents begin to experience strange emotions and discover a new dimension to their relationship.
H. De Vere Stacpoole's popular 1908 romance inspired two sequels as well as four movie versions.
