Vikings, pirates, heroes, rogues, and explorers... all have heard the siren call of the sea, and master storyteller Harold Lamb chronicled some of their most daring exploits. This single volume contains all of Lamb's historical seafaring stories, drawn from rare and fragile pulp magazines.
Harold Lamb (1892¿1962), who wrote biographies and screenplays as well as historical fiction, is best remembered for his tales of Cossacks and crusaders. Howard Andrew Jones is the managing editor of Black Gate magazine and the editor of Harold Lamb¿s Swords from the Desert and Swords from the West, both available in Bison Books editions. S. M. Stirling is the author of many science fiction novels, including most recently The Scourge of God and The Sunrise Lands.
