Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from True Blue the Adventures of Mel Ned and Jim My word, she can travel! I wonder how she will take the turn? Round she goes, right on her heel, the beauty! What wouldn´t I give to have a flyer like her?" The boy, whose enthusiasm had been aroused by the boat´s splendid performance, gave a sigh. ´No such luck for me," he said, turning to his chum. "I´ll have to be content with a little one-horse twostroke for the birthday present Dad promised me if I pulled off the Double-Dux of the School and All Schools´ Swimming Championship. Well, I collared them both, and as Dad never breaks his word, I bet it´s the little one-horse for me to-morrow." Ned Grattan, the speaker, like his chum, Jim Stanley, was an Australian boy. Born of an Irish father and an English mother, he inherited the characteristics of both races, being warm-hearted, quick-tempered, and ever ready to forget an injury. He had grit and determination written on his face, and strength in every action of his body. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
