William Faulkner, Jack London, Mary Shelley, Edgar Allan Poe, and Joseph Conrad?
I'd really like to find some other authors who write these styles as well as they do.

I meant to add that suggestions for both classic and modern books and authors are welcome. Thanks for the reminder, william h.

Herman Melville is the daddy of this particular style. "Typee" and "Billy Budd" are well worth a read, and of course, "Moby Dick."

Virtually any work by Charles Dickens (especially "A Tale of Two Cities", and Bleak House"), "The Last of the Mohicans" by James Fenimore Cooper as classical works.
For a more modern title, The Gates of Fire" by Steven Pressfield and "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter", with an apology to the author as I have forgotten that persons name.
