Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mr. Barnes, American: A Sequel to Mr. Barnes of New York "I wonder if I can head off those cursed Corsican murder enthusiasts?" mutters Mr. Barnes of New York, as he stands on the deck of the French steamer with Marseilles looming up in the heat mist ahead of him. It is a bright day upon the tideless Mediterranean. The waters of the landlocked sea ripple in silver waves beneath the rising sun this May morning of 1883, after the escape of the bridal party from Corsica. Barnes has just arisen from the first night´s sleep he has had in four days, and having got hold of his valise at Ajaccio and placed himself under the ship´s barber this morning, now feels himself again - that is, American and normal. There are very few passengers, Barnes´s gold having sent the steamer back on her return voyage to Marseilles within two hours after her arrival at Ajaccio.
