Arthur Victor Sellwood (16 April 1920 – 31 October 1987) was a British journalist and author who specialised in twentieth century naval history, adapting the recollections of Second World War naval officers into popular history books. He co-authored the story of the German merchant raider Atlantis with that ship's adjutant Ulrich Mohr as well as "Hein" Fehler's account of the voyage of German submarine U-234 and T. J. Cain's story of service on H.M.S. Electra. He wrote a number of other non-fiction works, some with his wife Mary, as well as the novelisation of the MGM film Children of the Damned. His last book, with Mary, was The Victorian Railway Murders for which the Sellwoods got the idea while Mary was working as a journalist soon after the end of the Second World War but which was not published until 1979.
