Thomas W. Knox is also famous as the author of "Underground or Life Below The Surface" and the "Boy Travellers" series, and co-author of "Darkness and Daylight". He wrote several dozen books describing the wonders of the world in the 19th century, and these books were wildly popular. I will *try* to get more thourough and accurate information to add to this article. I own a half dozen of his books myself.

"Works" and "Bibliography"? edit

Should the "Works" and "Selected Bibliography" sections of this article be combined? It seems redundant to have both. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:F2C0:F00E:A400:C428:665:AFD2:F5C8 (talk) 01:11, 5 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
