Nonsuch Publishing The Pirate and the Three Cutters: Nonsuch Classics
The Pirate is a stirring tale of adventure on the high seas. Full of action and excitement, it is a ripping yarn from the acknowledged pioneer of the sea-novel. The Three Cutters brings together three disparate sets of seafarers aboard three different vessels: an aristocratic yachting party, officers of the customs service and a crew of smugglers. Infused with the author's love for the sea, this is a thrilling story of cat and mouse off the English coast.

Wordsworth Editions Ltd The Children of the New Forest
Cavalier and Roundhead battle it out in the turbulent setting of the English Civil war and provide the background for this classic tale of four orphans as they face adversity, survival in the forest, reconciliation and eventual forgiveness. This is the first enduring historical novel for children, which conjures up as much magic today as it did on first publication. The freedom from adult constraint allied with the necessary disciplines to survive in a hostile world make for a gripping read.
