Dekorative Reihe. Rückentitel "Marryat's Works" + Kurztitel, aber ohne Bandzählung. Innen ohne Reihentitel. Wahrscheinlich liegt hier keine vollständige Reihe vor. Bände im Einzelnen: 1849: The Pacha of Many Tales; 1853: Percival Keene; The Poacher; The Phantom Ship; The Dog Fiend or Snarleyyow; 1854: Japhet, in Search of a Father; Rattlin, the Reefer; The King's Own; Peter Simple; 1855: Newton Forster or The Merchant Service. Meist ist der Autor auf dem Titelblatt nicht namentlich genannt ("by the Autor of ."), in "Phantom Ship" und "Percival" als "Capt. Marryat", in letzterem ist das Frontispiz keine Illustration zum Roman, sondern ein Porträt des Autors, ferner sind hier die ersten Seiten ein Vorwort mit Informationen über den (1848) verstorbenen Autor. Die Illustrationen tragen häufig ein früheres Datum als das Jahr des Druckes. - Die Kanten zuweilen stärker berieben, alle Frontispices gebräunt; Kanten mäßig bestoßen. Bei einigen Bändchen ist der Papierüberzug des Innengelenks geplatzt; aber nur bei "Peter Simple" liegt eine ernsthafte Beschädigung vor: Hier ist der Buchblock lose. Keine Namenszüge oder Stempel. Alle Bände sind in sehr keiner Schrift gedruckt. Einzelbände auf Anfrage. / Decorative series with title on spine: "Marryat's Works" + short title, no numbers. No series' title inside. Probably not a complete series. Only in two volumes author named, else "by the author of .".

Illustrations mostly dated earlier than year of print. - Edges mostly rubbed, corners moderately bumped, all frontispieces browned. Some volumes with endpapers cracked over hinges, but only "Peter Simple" really damaged: here the book block is lose. No names or stamps within the books.
