Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Phantom Ship, And, Olla Podrida With the publication of The Phantom Ship in 1839, Captain Marryat entered upon a new phase of his literary career. Hitherto his stories had been based on his own experience of life on the high seas, but in The Phantom Ship he forsakes the safe ground of experience for the perilous realms of the supernatural. The basis of this novel is the well-known legend of the Flying Dutchman, and in order to give his narrative that touch of remoteness from the practical realities of the present which the supernatural theme seemed to require, Captain Marryat refers it to the middle of the seventeenth century, and places his scene on board the vessels of the Dutch East India Company. This last change is of little or no importance, for although his mariners and their ships have foreign names, they bear a strong resemblance in all essentials to the bluejackets of her Majesty's navy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE PHANTOM SHIP is the most notable of the three novels constructed by Marryat on an historic basis, and like its predecessor in the same category, Snarleyyow, depends largely for its interest on the element of diablerie, which is very skilfully manipulated. Here, however, the supernatural appearances are never explained away, and the ghostly agencies are introduced in the spirit of serious, if somewhat melodramatic, romance. Marryat's personal experience enabled him, with little research, to produce a life-like picture of old Dutch seamanship, and his powers in racy narrative have transformed the Vanderdecken legend into a stirring tale of terror. The plot cannot be called original, but it is more carefully worked out and, from the nature of the material at hand, more effective than most of Marryat's own. He has put life into it, moreover, by the creation of some genuine characters, designed for nobler ends than to move the machinery.

Book excerpt: Olla Podrida is a Spanish stew made from pork, beans and an inconsistent, wide variety of other meats and vegetables, which Marryat uses to describe this combination of a diary of his travels on the Continent, short stories, and satirical essays on how to write "a Fashionable Novel," "a Book of Travels," and "a Romance." Captain Frederick Marryat (1792-1848) was an English Royal Navy officer, novelist, and 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, and for a widely used system of maritime flag signaling, known as Marryat's Code.
