From the Father of Modern Nautical Fiction - Newton Forster first appeared in 1832 as a series in Metropolitan Magazine.

PERCIVAL KEENE (Book Thirteen of the Marryat Cycle) by Frederick Marryat PERCIVAL KEENE (Book Thirteen of the Marryat Cycle) by Frederick Marryat
In many ways the book is a refreshing departure from the hero as a cross between Superman and Dudley Do-Right.  Keene has flaws.  So do we all.  But couple that realism with Marryat's unquestioned ability to tell a sea yarn, and you have a very interesting read.
