In "Motor Matt's Submarine; or, The Strange Cruise of the Grampus," Stanley R. Matthews crafts an exhilarating adventure that blends elements of early 20th-century pulp fiction with the burgeoning fascination for marine exploration. The narrative follows Motor Matt and his companions as they embark on a daring voyage aboard the submarine Grampus, encountering mysterious sea creatures and hazardous challenges. Matthews' vivid imagery and lively dialogue encapsulate the spirit of innovation of his time, leading readers through an imaginative journey that reflects the era's technological enthusiasm and quest for discovery. Stanley R. Matthews, an accomplished writer and editor, drew inspiration from his own love for adventure and the rapid advances in maritime technology during the early 1900s. His background in the popular serialization of stories for young audiences significantly influenced the book's structure, fostering a sense of suspense and engagement characteristic of serial narratives. Matthews aimed to instill wonder and curiosity in his readers, particularly the youth, encapsulating the thrill of exploration amid the turn-of-the-century zeitgeist. This book is highly recommended for readers who delight in classic adventure tales and the nostalgia of early science fiction.

    Twenty thousand kilometres and four months of sailing are what stands between England and the colony of Australia.
