Step aboard a lost corner of Victorian imagination where wit, danger, and etiquette meet the endless sea. In A Steamer Chair, And Other Shipboard Stories revives Robert Barr s finest shipboard tales for a new generation. This collection gathers razor-sharp Robert Barr stories that dramatize life aboard ocean liners, merchant ships, and hospital steamers: witty sketches of steamer-chair society, tense maritime adventures, and haunting moments of human frailty on long 19th-century voyages. From clever social observation to pulse-quickening nautical fiction, these short stories map the rhythms of shipboard life, the hierarchies of class at sea, and the indomitable curiosity of travelers in the Victorian age. Historically significant and richly atmospheric, Barr s work illuminates a vanished world of ocean travel a must-read for fans of classic sea narratives and anyone fascinated by historical ship stories. These shipboard tales capture both the comedy and peril of travel in an era when an ocean voyage was an adventure in itself, offering vivid snapshots of manners, maritime superstition, and the human dramas that unfolded on deck and below.

This edition is more than a reprint it s a collector s item and a cultural treasure for lovers of Victorian travel stories, nautical fiction, and ocean voyage literature.
