About the Author
Frank Marryat, a well-to-do British adventurer, traveled to California via Panama with his manservant and three dogs in 1850 in pursuit of the exotic. Upon his return to England in 1853, he married and returned to California with his bride that same year. After contracting yellow fever while at sea, he had to cut his trip short to return to England, where he died two years later.
