Augusta Marryat




Augusta Marryat (1834? - 1898?) was a British author. The daughter of author Capt. Frederick Marryat and his wife Catherine, she was a children's author and illustrator perhaps best known for the adventure novel Left to Themselves: A Boy's Adventure in Australia (1878),[1] which in later editions had acquired the title The Young Lamberts. The novel is set in Australia, but she is not known to have ever visited the country.[2]


Her sisters Florence and Emilia were also authors: Augusta wrote adventure fiction heavily infused with morality in her father's vein,[1] and Florence was a prolific author of sensationalist novels who also acquired a reputation for hanging out with spiritual mediums. A full bibliography of Augusta Marryat is available in The Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature: 1800-1900, Vol. 4.[3]
