Book Description
John Buchan is the father of the modern spy thriller. This is so even though the Hannay books are not, strictly speaking, about spies at all in the professional sense of the word. They are about penetration of the enemy, about lonely escape and wild journeys, about the thin veneer that stands between civilsation and barbarism.

Book Description
As war looms in Europe, Richard Hannay returns from Rhodesia to his home in London. His neighbor, an American freelance spy named Franklin Scudder, claims to know of an assassination plot to destabilize Europe. When Hannay finds Scudder dead in his flat he is drawn into a fast-paced labyrinthine adventure that takes him from the hills of Scotland to an unassuming location by the sea. The progenitor of the classic man-on-the-run thriller, The Thirty-Nine Steps first appeared as a serial adventure story in Blackwood's Magazine from August to September 1915 and in book form in October of that year. Since its publication it has never been out of print and has been frequently adapted for television, radio, theater, and film, including, quite famously, a 1935 film directed by Alfred Hitchcock.

Book Description
"Barbara Marro's book, Smitty's Cave Adventures, is an irresistible and arresting tale with a beautiful underlying moral basis, that a boy who is true to himself and the values he has grown up with will, with the help of his spiritual guide, overcome any challenge and survive any threat. And there are enough threats, on land and sea, in this story to absorb any young reader." Barry Sheinkopf, Editorial Director of The Writing Center in Englewood, NJ
