Summary: "Dutch the Diver; Or, A Man's Mistake" by George Manville Fenn is a novel written in the late 19th century. Set in a bustling seaside town, the story revolves around Dutch Pugh, a young man engaged in the dangerous profession of underwater diving, and his complex relationships with his wife Hester, his employer Mr. Parkley, and a mysterious Cuban visitor named Senor Manuel Laure.
