Captain Frederick Marryat (July 10, 1792 – August 9, 1848) was an English novelist, a contemporary and 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.

Some of his works have been posted here already.

This is a fast moving adventure tale describing an expedition to South Africa. Very good!

From PG, have added own cover, lightly illustrated

Have fun!
