Why Is Alexander Laing Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Alexander Kinnan Laing was a poet, novelist, writer and compiler of sea stories, and professor. He spent his career at Dartmouth College, where he also studied. Life and career Laing dropped out of Dartmouth in 1925 and spent two years at sea, an experience that informed much of his later work. He served on the SS Leviathan, a German-built passenger liner that had been seized by the United States in 1917. On the Leviathan, he sailed to Southampton and, later, to Los Angeles via the Panama Canal. He retained his affection for the sea, using a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1934 to sail around the world via Europe, the Suez Canal, Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, and Hawaii.
