Description

3 Great Adventure Stories. Three true stories of daring and excitement with entirely different themes and backgrounds but all highlighting particular aspects of human resourcefulness and courage. One More River by Gordon Hunt tells of the author's escape into China with nine other men and a dog as the Japanese Army poured into Burma. Only one route remained open: Gordon Hunt and his party had to cross the great rivers in the north, scale mountain ranges and traverse a wilderness where only the law of bandits prevailed. In Airline Detective Donald Fish tells the inside story of his fight against a new type of international crime. The development of high speed aircraft opened up an immense field of opportunity for the criminal. The Tartan Pimpernel id Donald Caskie's own story of his courageous help in the escape of servicemen trapped in Occupied France. In Marseilles and Grenoble he established a 'seaman's mission' where he fed, clothed and set on the road to safety hundreds of men.
