North Sea Heroes: True Stories from a Scottish Shore
No Customer Reviews
Inside are seven adventure stories - true stories of heroes and their derring-do linked to the east coast of Scotland - stories that should be famous, but are surprisingly little-known. Read the epic story of survival of the Spanish men shipwrecked on Fair Isle during the Spanish Armada, a most unusual coalmine, a forgotten Jacobite rebellion, the Dundee women who tried to eradicate slavery in the United States and ended up emancipating women instead, the Scottish janitor who made major scientific discoveries, the first flight across the North Sea, and the unexpected reception given to the men from a German U-boat during WWII. You will not be able to put North Sea Heroes down. This is a book like they used to write back in the day... written to thrill, full of rattling good yarns! And more amazing because they are true!
