"A Book for the Hammock" is a pivotal piece of nautical fiction written by William Clark Russell. William Clark Russell writes with authority as a former sailor himself and is able to instill in his readers the fear, stress, and excitement of being at sea in the late 1800s. This book, instead, was written with sailors in mind. A compilation of stories, Russell succeeded in creating an anthology that would cure the boredom of sailors around the globe. While the book was almost lost to time as travel by sea became less commonplace, it is still a part of the author's nautical legacy.
