Excerpt from Jacob Faithful: The Mission, or Scenes in Africa Jacob faithf UL is the first of a trio of novels which Captain Marryat wrote in the course of the year 1834, the other two being Mr. Midshipman Easy and Japhet in Search of a Father. They did not appear consecutively in three-volume form, for the collection of stories entitled The Pacha of Many Tales was the immediate successor of Jacob Faithful, while the publication of Midshipman Easy and J aphet was deferred until 1836. Nevertheless the pages of the Metropolitan Magazine bore witness during the course of 1834 to the enormous industry of our author, perhaps accounted for by the expense to which he had been put in standing for Tower Hamlets, as already narrated in the introduction to Peter Simple. Now that Captain Marryat is really launched on his literary career, he has no time or inclination to quarrel with his critics, or to give us those personal disquisitions as to his motives and his mean ings which appeared in the earlier volumes. He goes in a straightforward way to the execution of his business, occupied solely with the adventures of his hero, and never allowing the course of his narrative to be embarrassed with explanatory or exculpatory passages. Moreover, he has learnt better than before the principles of his profession his object is to interest the reader and carry out his novelistic design - the result being that Jacob Faithful is, from a technical standpoint, one of the best of his books, now and again reminding us of Smollett, and in the Opinion of some critics representing a high-water mark in Marryat's literary career.

It was in the autumn of the year 1828, that an elderly and infirm gentleman was slowly pacing up and down in a large dining-room. He had apparently finished his dinner, although it was not yet five o'clock, and the descending sun shone bright and warm through the windows, which were level with the ground, and from which there was a view of a spacious park, highly ornamented with old timber.

The Mission or Scenes in Africa is a part of Frederick Marryat's collection of adventure novels, beloved by the likes of Mark Twain and Ernest Hemingway. Marryat was a Royal Navy officer during the Napoleonic Wars, but retired to research and writing after the wars' end in 1815. He wrote dozens of novels, plays, short stories and essays inspired by his naval experiences. Originally published in 1845 and re released in 1896, The Mission or Scenes in Africa is the story of three English men's perilous adventures during their journey from the Cape of Good Hope to Northern Africa. The three men document their observations and descriptions of African landscape and animals. The book also touches on the settlement of the Cape.

"[...] "Although I have long been acquainted with the general statement, my dear uncle, respecting the loss of the ship, I have never yet heard any such details as would warrant this apprehension of yours. It is generally supposed that all perished, perished indeed most miserably, except the few men who made their way to the Cape, and returned to England." "Such was the supposition, my dear boy, but subsequent reports have to a certain degree contradicted it, [...]."
