W. W. Jacobs
William Wymark Jacobs was born in Wapping, London, England in 1863. He worked as a clerk in the civil service before turning to writing in his late twenties, publishing his first short story in 1895. Most of Jacobs' work appeared before the onset of World War I, and although the majority of his output was humorous in tone, he is best-remembered now for his macabre tales, particularly those contained in his 1902 collection The Lady of the Barge, such as 'The Monkey's Paw' and 'The Toll House'. His novel The Skipper's Wooing (1897) and his collection Sea Urchins (1898) were also popular. Jacobs died in 194 3, aged 79.
