Book Description
A study of the influence Whitby exerted upon the planning stages and finalised form of Stoker's Gothic masterpiece, 'Dracula', 'Birth of a Legend' examines Stoker's visit to the town on the summer of 1890 and the discoveries he made there, including his first encounter with the name Dracula, in an obscure old fictional transformation of the 1885 wreck of the Russian ship Dmitry into the Demeter, the doomed schooner which brings Dracula to England. In order to provide a context the events of 1890 are presented within the framework of Stoker's life and the continuing Dracula phenomenon. The book also includes the full 1897 text of Dracula the novel perhaps one of popular English literatures finest works.
