‘Now Susan,’ Mother said, ‘And you too, John. No night sailing. No going outside the harbour. And back the day after tomorrow. Promise.’But promises can’t always be kept. Within twenty-four hours John, Susan, Titty and Roger find themselves fighting a night gale in the treacherous waters of the North Sea, adrift and in the main shipping lanes.

About The Author | Arthur Ransome was born in Leeds in l884 and went to school at Rugby. He was in Russia in l917, and witnessed the Revolution, which he reported for the Manchester Guardian. After escaping to Scandinavia, he settled in the Lake District with his Russian wife where, in l929, he wrote Swallows and Amazons. And so began a writing career which has produced some of the real children's treasures of all time. In 1936 he won the first ever Carnegie Medal for his book, Pigeon Post. |
Arthur Ransome's adventure books are an institution, and Christmas is the richer because of his invention, gravity, and solid matter |
