Nevil Shute

Nevil Shute, an English-Australian novelist and aeronautical engineer, was born in 1899 and passed away in 1960. To safeguard his engineering career, he omitted "Norway" from his pen name. His works are categorized into three groups: Pre-War (mainly pre-1940), War (1938-1947), and Australia (1948-1960). Given his background in aeronautics, aviation features prominently in his stories. Shute's literary career began in 1926 with the publication of Marazan. Below is a chronological list of his books as they were originally released:
