| Summary | "Frank Mildmay, De zeeofficier" by Frederick Marryat is a novel written in the early 19th century. The story revolves around the life experiences of Frank Mildmay, a young man who aspires to leave his troubled school days behind and embrace a life at sea. As he joins the British Navy, the narrative unfolds his trials, triumphs, and the harsh realities of naval life during that era, painting a vivid picture of his character development amid the challenges he faces. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Frank Mildmay, who reflects on his upbringing in a privileged family and his consequent struggles at a strict school. Mildmay is depicted as a clever but rebellious child whose mischievous nature eventually leads him to join the naval service, seeking adventure and freedom. The opening chapters detail his departure from home, initial impressions of life aboard a ship, and the adversities he encounters, including bullying from older cadets and the rigors of naval training. Through his early challenges, including a rivalry with a fellow officer named Murphy, Mildmay's character begins to evolve as he grapples with self-control and the harshness of the environment, setting the stage for further development throughout the narrative.
