Beschreibung

Condition of hardback Book and Dustjacket: Very Good Biggles goes to the southern most tip of South America in search of gold after a tip off from Erich von Stalhein. British gold has been hidden on an unknown island by the German Navy during the Second World War. Partly as a cover story, Biggles is additionally in search of two missing botanists called Carter and Barlow. Von Stalhein, Biggles' former rival has been rescued from a Russian prison colony and settled in London. He offers a tantalizing piece of intelligence. There is a cache of gold which a German warship had captured from a British merchantman during the First World War. Biggles is sent to collect it but to do so he needs to travel to the Tierra del Fuego, at the extreme southern end of South America, literally the world's end. Biggles, tired of using obsolete cast-off or borrowed aircraft, is offered a new amphibian for his Air Police inventory--the Gadfly. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 1150
