1929 The Novels of Captain Marryat
By Frederick Marryat
Located in Bath, GB
A superb set of the novels of Captain Marryat, elegantly and uniformly bound in half morocco, and illustrated throughout.
A twenty-two volume set in half morocco bindings, with pictorial gilt to the spines. All edges gilt.
Captain Frederick Marryat (1792-1848) was a Royal Navy officer and an early pioneer of nautical fiction. He is best known for his semi-autobiographical novel Mr Midshipman Easy (1836) and for his children's novel The Children of the New Forest (1847). He also developed Marryat's Code, a widely used system of maritime flag signalling.
This handsome set includes twenty-two of Marryat's novels, edited with a prefatory note to each volume by R. Brimley Johnson. The set is lacking Volumes VII and X. These volumes have been reprinted from the first editions. Volume I contains a brief biography of Marryat by the editor.
This set comprises:
Volume I: Peter Simple
Volume II: Frank Mildmay
Volume III: Newton Forster
Volume IV: Jacob Faithful
Volume V: The Pacha of Many Tales
Volume VI: Mr Midshipman Easy
Volume VIII: Snarleyyow
