About this product

Product Information

Percival Keene (1842) is a novel by Frederick Marryat. Inspired by the author's experience as a captain in the Royal Navy, Percival Keene is a tale of bravery, identity, and the manifold reasons for men to take to the high seas. Frequently funny, often profound, Marryat's novel is an underappreciated classic of nineteenth century fiction. "'Dead! Well, fathers do die sometimes; you must get on how you can without one. I don't think fathers are of much use, for, you see, mothers take care of you till you're old enough to go to sea. My father did nothing for me, except to help mother to lick me, when I was obstropolous.'" Percival Keene is a troubled young man: raised by his mother and grandmother, he gains a reputation for troublemaking and disobedience early on. At school, he lashes out against bullying teacher Mr. O'Gallagher by adding poison to his sandwiches, knowing that the man will steal his lunch as usual. On Guy Fawkes Day, however, Percival finally crosses the line by setting off fireworks underneath O'Gallagher's office, destroying the school and nearly killing the Irishman. Years later, having lost his chance at receiving an education, Percival enlists in the Royal Navy. While serving on the H.M. Calliope , he discovers that his father may not have been the marine Ben Keene, but rather his employer Captain Delmar. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Frederick Marryat's Percival Keene is a classic of British literature reimagined for modern readers.

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
