This Is A New Release Of The Original 1921 Edition.
1921. With seventeen illustrations and a map. Walter E. Traprock is
the pseudonym for George S. Chappell. The Cruise of the Kawa is a
professional, carefully crafted joke in the form of a parody.
Towards the end of the story it introduces the several authors
whose work it has aped: Fred O'Brien, Martin Johnson, William
Beebe, MacQuarrie, Captain Bligh and Joseph Conrad. The actual
author was George S. Chappell, a professional architect trained at
the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris after graduating from Yale in
1899. He was also known as George Shepard. He wrote a series of
similar books over a 15-year period, into the 1930's.
