Frederick Marryat papers, 1830-1842.

The collection consists of papers of Frederick Marryat from 1830-1842. The papers include letters written by Marryat to his wife Kate, his sub-editor Edward Howard, his editor Charles Ollier and others, discussing personal affairs and literary matters regarding the publication of his novels and articles. Of particular interest are two letters to Edward Howard, Marryat's sub-editor on the Metropolitan Magazine, debating a serious dispute between them over editing policy and other matters. He also writes at length about his stay in Germany (ca. 1835) and about his disgust with British parliamentary proceedings.
