Deep Waters [PDF ebook] 
The Entire Collection

The stories in this collection hearken back to some of W. W. Jacobs’ favorite settings and milieus: ships at sea and the wharfs of London, where a misanthropic nightwatchman thinks back bitterly over his life while walking his rounds. Fans of Jacobs’ most famous tale, "The Monkey’s Paw, " will be pleasantly surprised to discover the true breadth of his talent.
