Some edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners bruised, not price clipped (£5.50), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 292pp. Hero of Jutland in World War I, Kelly Maguire progresses rapidly through Navy ranks during the dangerous post War years. Amidst the Russian Civil War, British forces must rescue thousands of terrified White Army men from rampaging Communist militias. Maguire gets stuck in, risking everything. From Russia, he moves on to China, and a gunboat incident on the Yangtze. His resolve is tested when he must choose between his childhood sweetheart to a wealthy aristocrat. 'Max Hennessy' was one of the pseudonyms of crime, war and historical novelist John Harris (1916-91). His 1953 novel 'The Sea Shall Not Have Them' was the basis for a feature film of the same name in 1954. Quite a scarce book. From old enemies to old flames, Maguire will once again have to risk it all to prove his worth. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 011465
