Book Description HTML

If our young readers will take a map of Europe, and look to the west, they will see a broad wide sea called the Baltic, stretching northward and separating the countries of Norway and Sweden from Russia. To the east of this sea is a gulf, called the Gulf of Finland, and at the extremity of that gulf, at the mouth of the river Neva, stands the city of St. Petersburg, the capital of Russia in Europe.

    Read the book years ago and lost my copy in an inter-continent move. Saw the (various) movies - and the BBC series Hannay - did lights for the play. It's great to have it in ePub format.

    I agree with both Allen Bain, and Stephanie Peterkin. It was a real page turner.
