Japhet, in Search of a Father is a part of Frederick Marryat's collection of adventure novels, beloved by the likes of Mark Twain and Ernest Hemingway. Marryat was a Royal Navy officer during the Napoleonic Wars, but retired to research and writing after the wars' end in 1815. He wrote dozens of novels, plays, short stories and essays inspired by his naval experiences. Originally published in 1836 and then re released in 1896, Japhet, in Search of a Father follows Japhet, a young man who knows nothing about his parents or birth, and his change of fortune and bad luck as he journeys through the class obsessed England and Ireland.
