Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Jacob Faithful; or, The Adventures of a Waterman By Captain Marryatt [Frederick Marryat] Charles Lane, 1838 Lane's Uniform Edition Complete in two volumes Hardcovers in dark boards Approximately 3¼ × 5 inches each An early, compact two-volume edition of Marryat's Jacob Faithful, issued in Lane's Uniform Edition. First published in book form in 1834, the novel was originally serialized in the Metropolitan Magazine. This set represents a later presentation of the work in a small, portable format. The novel belongs to the body of fiction that established Captain Marryat's enduring association with maritime storytelling, here taking the life and adventures of a waterman as its subject. For collectors, this set's particular interest lies in its early date, diminutive format, and survival as a matching two-volume Lane edition rather than as an isolated volume. A comparable Charles Lane edition is preserved by the New Hampshire Historical Society. Condition: Fair overall. Complete two-volume set in dark boards. No dust jackets. Books show significant wear, but are complete. Volume 2 is in better shape, as the front board of volume 1 is literally hanging on by a thread. Please review photographs for details.…
