Описание: Mr Anthony Lammas, whose long legs had been covering ground at the rate of five miles an hour, slackened his pace, for he felt the need of ordering a mind which for some hours had been dancing widdershins. For one thing the night had darkened, since the moon had set, and the coast track which he followed craved wary walking. But it was the clear dark of a northern April, when, though the details are blurred, the large masses of the landscape are apprehended. He was still aware of little headlands descending to a shadowy gulf which was the Firth. Far out the brazier on the May was burning with a steady glow, like some low-swung planet shaming with its ar- dour the cold stars. He sniffed the sharp clean scent of the whins above the salt; he could almost detect the brightness of their flowering. They should have been thyme, he thought, thyme and arbutus and tamarisk clothing the capes of the Si- cilian sea, for this was a night of Theocritus

Описание: I spent one-third of my journey looking out of the window of a first-classcarriage, the next in a local motor-car following the course of a trout streamin a shallow valley, and the last tramping over a ridge of downland throughgreat beech-woods to my quarters for the night. In the first part I was in aninfamous temper; in the second I was worried and mystified; but the cooltwilight of the third stage calmed and heartened me, and I reached the gatesof Fosse Manor with a mighty appetite and a quiet mind.

Описание: Considered by many to be one of the greatest adventure novels of all time, "The Thirty-Nine Steps" is Scottish author John Buchan's most successful work. Published in 1915 and set during the early days of the First World War, it is the first of Buchan's stories of Richard Hannay, a brave and honorable yet unremarkable gentleman, who finds himself mixed up in extraordinary circumstances. In "The Thirty-Nine Steps" Hannay is unintentionally drawn into a deadly plot to undermine the British war effort and assassinate the Greek Premier. Framed for murder and now a fugitive from the law, Hannay must race against time to try to stay one step ahead of his deadly pursuers and do what he can to stop the plot. Thrust into a world of spies, intrigue, and danger, the ordinary Hannay rises to the occasion and becomes a resourceful and loyal hero. Thrilling, intelligent, and clever, "The Thirty-Nine Steps" was popular and widely influential when first published and is credited with being one of the first "man on the run" stories. This classic is an exciting adventure of mystery and espionage that will thrill and delight readers both young and old. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

Описание: During the past year, in the intervals of an active life, I have amused myself withconstructing this tale. It has been scribbled in every kind of odd place and moment-in Englandand abroad, during long journeys, in half-hours between graver tasks; and it bears, I fear, themark of its gipsy begetting. But it has amused me to write, and I shall be well repaid if it amusesyou-and a few others-to read.
