William Seymour grows up on shipboard in the Royal Navy, after his father is hanged during the mutiny at the Nore (1797), and later, he is impressed into the crew of a daring smuggler.

Notă biografică

Captain Frederick Marryat, a Royal Navy officer, author, and friend of Charles Dickens, lived from 10 July 1792 until 9 August 1848. Because of his semi-autobiographical work Mr. Midshipman Easy, he is regarded as an early pioneer of nautical fiction (1836). His children's book The Children of the New Forest (1847) and the Marryat's Code, a commonly used method of nautical flag signaling, are well remembered. The son of Joseph Marryat, a "commercial prince," a member of Parliament, a slave owner, and an opponent of abolition, and his American wife Charlotte, née von Geyer, Marryat was born in Great George Street, Westminster, London.
