In Sargasso. Missing, a Romance; Narrative of Capt. Austin Clark, of the Tramp Steamer Caribas, Who, for Two Years, Was a Captive Among the Savage People of the Seaweed Sea. Julius Chambers. New York and London: The Transatlantic Publishing Company, 1896. First edition. A lost race novel set in the Sargasso Sea in which a sea captain is held captive by the community of castaways from derelict ships entombed there. A sly parody of the form by this hardheaded newspaper writer, featuring such details as a character who, when in pensive mood, goes to the bow of the ship and plays the Polish national anthem on his trombone. -- source link
