Other 18th and 19th century classic adventure tales you may like:
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn/Tom Sawyer - Mark Twain
Moby Dick - Herman Melville
Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass - Lewis Carroll (much more intense, scary and exciting than any movie version)
Heart of Darkness - Joseph Conrad (it doesn't get better than this for gritty adventure)
Any and all Charles Dickens, especially: Oliver, Nicholas Nickleby, David Copperfield, a Tale of Two Cities, The Pickwick Papers...
Ivanhoe - Sir Walter Scott
Frankenstein - Mary Shelley Wollstonecraft (it's not a horror - it's an adventure)
Journey to the Center of the Earth/20,000 Leagues Under the Sea - Jules Verne (awesome sci-fi adventures)
The Time Machine/Island of Dr. Moreau - H.G. Wells (more awesome sci-fi adventures)
If you want to get obscure and indulge in some real-life, historical adventure - get a hold of a copy of The Journals of Captain Cook. It was the burst of publications like this "captain's log" during the 18th century that spawned the travel-adventure genre.
Happy travels!

M$Another of my favorites is by Ernst Miller Hemingway wartime correspondent and winner of the Nobel Prize for literature in 1954,he produced over 258 works many of which fall neatly into the category of adventure classics like"The Snow of Kilimanjaro and Other Stories".
But by far my favorite Adventure Author of the early 19th century was Jules Verne a French Man, who authored the following works 1. Journey to the centre of the earth(1864) 2.From The Earth To The Moon(1865) 3. Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea (1870) and 4.Around the world In Eighty Days which was adopted into a movie starring Steve Coogan and Jackie Chan.This guy wrote adventures based on space,air and submarine travel,long before they were invented.Reffered to as the father of sci-fi.
Another Good author is Horace George Wells or simply H.G Wells he wrote books in the late 19th to early 20th century. Some notable ones being. 1.The Time Machine 2.The Invisible Man 3.The Island Of Doctor Moreau 4. War of The Worlds 5.When the sleeper wakes 6.First men on the Moon.
