Reade Declines U.S. Visit Citing Seasickness Fears
Charles Reade refused to visit the United States after hearing of Harvard captain Loring's crew in London. He feared seasickness would doom him crossing the Atlantic, saying he would likely die on the voyage. Reade recalled Dickens crossing the ocean, noting he would be a coward at sea rather than endure the voyage. The tale links Reade’s stance to Harvard’s rowing fame and a London dinner with Captain Loring.
