| "No manly boy ever grows
tired of sea stories - there is an irresistible fascination about them, and
they are a recreation to the mind. Capital books, full of startling
incident, clever dialogue, admirable descriptions of sky and water in all
their aspects, and plenty of fun. Beautiful books, well printed and
illustrated."
"The four-volume "Deep
Sea" series was published by Grosset & Dunlap in the 1900's. #4 was
also part of the "Outdoor" series; hence the multiplicity of
publishers. The first three books seem to have become the foundation for the "Dave Fearless"
series; the reprinting of the original "Deep Sea" books was done
by Sully, and Garden City took over with volume #4. According to Ilana
Nash's Stratemeyer Syndicate webpage, the series was actually written by
Edward Stratemeyer and Weldon J. Cobb.
