Book Description
Excerpt from The Phantom Ship, And, Olla Podrida With the publication of The Phantom Ship in 1839, Captain Marryat entered upon a new phase of his literary career. Hitherto his stories had been based on his own experience of life on the high seas, but in The Phantom Ship he forsakes the safe ground of experience for the perilous realms of the supernatural. The basis of this novel is the well-known legend of the Flying Dutchman, and in order to give his narrative that touch of remoteness from the practical realities of the present which the supernatural theme seemed to require, Captain Marryat refers it to the middle of the seventeenth century, and places his scene on board the vessels of the Dutch East India Company. This last change is of little or no importance, for although his mariners and their ships have foreign names, they bear a strong resemblance in all essentials to the bluejackets of her Majesty's navy.
