It's true. When you least expect it, you'll find something delightful. Which is what I did at the secondhand bookstore. Just started reading it....but before that. Some background information. This book was first published in 1964. It is the 15th book in the Lone Pine series. My version: armada paperback edition, which sadly has no illustrations except for a map. The Lone Pine series was written over a span of 36 years. Thankfully ( phew ) each book is complete in itself. Otherwise, I would go a little mad in my hunt to get the series and read it in chronological order. Malcom Saville starts by writing a short foreword introducing his readers ( the new readers) to members of the Lone Pine club and gives a little background on the place where the book is based.
