Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Desert and Mrs. Ajax Dick Holly was nearly home. Marooned on the sun-bleached platform of Ami flag station amid an assortment of glaringly new pigskin bags, he was impatiently kicking his heels against the side of his trunk and waiting for yesterday´s unappreciated comforts to depart. Without a sign of regret on his bronzed face, he saw them roll away - damask and silver, cut glass and genial African - with all their crowding memories of six months in the East, of strange scenes of pomp and glitter and tumultuous endeavor - all dwindling down into the shining plain and fading at last into a mere smudge of smoke against the horizon. Before him lay - the Desert. Between the shifting slopes of the sand hills he saw it in all its hypnotizing vastness, glittering and twinkling under a summer´s sun.
