Ahoy - Mac's Web Log

Dear Mac,
I really enjoyed your web page. When I was a young boy of about 13 I read a book by Von Luckner about his commerce raiding. I have searched for years for this book. Do you know the name of it and if one can be found.

Thanks,
Gerry Beaudoin

Gerry,
 
I suspect that the book you read as a boy was: The Sea Devil by Lowell Thomas, published by William Heinemann Limited, London. in 1928,
 
and reprinted many times. I would be seeking a copy on the Amazon Book site, also put "ABE Books" into your Google search engine, and then look for The Sea Devil.
 
I am sure you will find a copy, please let me know if I can help further, and tell me how you get on.
 
Best wishes,
 
 Mac.
