The second part is a bibliography that lists all of Conrad's published works, including novels, short stories, and essays. The biographical sketch covers Conrad's childhood in Poland, his family's exile to Russia, his education, and his decision to become a sailor. It also delves into his experiences at sea, including his voyage to the Congo, which inspired his most famous novel, Heart of Darkness.

The bibliography provides a comprehensive list of Conrad's published works, including the dates of publication and the various editions that have been released.
