Argosy Quotes
A rusty nail placed near a faithful compass, will sway it from the truth, and wreck the argosy.
Walter Scott
As one of the first editors at 'Outside' magazine in 1975, it was my contention that most American writing going back to James Fennimore Cooper and then through Twain up to Hemingway had been outdoor writing. At that time, adventure writing meant stuff like 'Saga' or 'Argosy.' 'Death Race with the Jungle Leper Army!' That kind of thing.
Tim Cahill
