Book Description:
During his first night aboard steamer City of Buffalo, Mr. George Morris dreams he is being chased around deck by a pair of young ladies one a pronounced blonde, and the other an equally pronounced brunette . . . and he suffers a great deal of uncertainty as to which he desires the most to avoid. At last they have him cornered and start mopping the deck with him with the swish, swish, swish of men scrubbing the deck in early morning! Troubling dream . . . yet the blonde from whom sought escape, by booking this voyage, is also on board as is this reserved, literate, and interesting brunette, Miss Katherine Earle . . . who is traveling not so much away from America, as he is, but toward a definite destination . . . about which she will say nothing. Scottish novelist Robert Barr (1850 1912) is at the height of his powers with 'In a Steamer Chair' and the other stories in this collection, depicting life aboard the oceangoing steamer ships around the turn of the last century with knife sharp precision and artistry.
