Biographie de l'auteur :
Captain Frederick Marryat is probably one of the most important authors to write historical naval fiction books. Firstly he was one of the first authors to write such books and they must be considered as some of the most authentic as he actually served in the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars. He first served aboard Lord Cochrane's HMS Imperieuse when she attacked French and Spanish interests in the Western Mediterranean. Captain Frederick Marryat (10 July 1792 – 9 August 1848) was a British Royal Navy officer, novelist, and an acquaintance of Charles Dickens, noted today as an early pioneer of the sea story. He is now known particularly for the semi-autobiographical novel Mr. Midshipman Easy and his children's novel The Children of the New Forest, and for a widely used system of maritime flag signalling, known as Marryat's Code.

Description du livre Hardback. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. Reprint. PETER SIMPLE Captain Frederick Marryat. Gollancz Classics, London 1969 First Thus ISBN 0575001941 512pp Hardback. This copy is in FINE condition in a FINE unclipped dustwrapper. One of the most well-read and most enjoyed of Marryat's works, this tells the story of a young boy, the son of a North Country parson, who is sent to sea, to fulfil a family tradition. All sorts of amusing incidents occur, and there is a Captain in command at one point, who simply cannot tell the truth, or at least cannot help embellishing the truth with very fanciful and sometimes contradictory details. Very probably Marryat had someone in mind when he invented this character. Our hero ends the story having succeeded to the family peerage, which most of the time during the story seemed pretty unlikely to happen. Frederick Marryat was born in Great George Street, Westminster, London on 10th July 1792. His father, Joseph Marryat, was descended from Huguenots who had taken refuge in England following the St. Bartholemew's Day massacres in 1572, two centuries previously, and his mother was an American from Boston, with the maiden name of Geyer. Frederick's grandfather was Dr. Thomas Marryat, an extremely eccentric physician, who had died, impoverished, in Bristol just before Frederick's birth. Ref O5. N° de réf. du vendeur 005749
