Born in Tacoma in 1916, Murray earned a BA at the University of Washington (1937) and an MS from Columbia University (1942). He has had a long and distinguished career as a writer, newspaper reporter, and college instructor, and currently is a frequent book reviewer for the Tacoma News Tribune. Murray along with Rosa, his wife and collaborator, lives and writes in a remodelled dance hall on Trout Lake between Tacoma and Seattle. His high-seas tale of the C.S.S. Shenandoah originally appeared in 1948.
"If you want to go on a long salt water cruise, this is your book... The ship and its crew deserve this revealing book about them." -The Commonweal
"Murray Morgan's book is a valuable addition to Americana. Based on extensive research, entertainingly written, it resurrects an almost forgotten achievement." -New York Herald Tibune
"All this valuable original source material was mined, worked over, and sifted into its present form in a most workmanlike manner and the result is a book that reads like a most entertaining novel." -San Francisco Chronicle
