The Seventh Man

The Seventh Man by Arthur Quiller-Couch is offered here in a clean English digital edition prepared for fluent ebook reading. The work stands within classics and gives modern readers direct access to a public-domain classic with navigable structure and a restrained typographic presentation. The opening pages establish the book's atmosphere with this first movement: In a one-roomed hut, high within the Arctic Circle, and only a little south of the eightieth parallel, six men were sitting - much as they had sat, evening after evening, for months.
They had a clock, and by it they divided the hours into day and night. As a matter of fact, it was always night. But This edition is suited to readers who want a reliable, uncluttered version of the text for study, rediscovery, and sustained reading.
