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 Volume IX: The Phantom Ship Volume XI: Poor Jack Volume XII: The King's Own Volume XIII: Joseph Rushbrook Volume XIV: Percival Keene Volume XV: Monsieur Violet Volume XVI: The Privateer's Man Volume XVII: Masterman Ready Volume XVIII: The Settlers in Canada Volume XIX: The Mission Volume XX: The Children of the New Forest Volume XXI: The Little Savage Volume XXII: Valerie Including two unnumbered, yet uniformly bound, volumes: Japhet, in Search of a Father and Olla Podrida.
