Über den Autor
Arthur Ransome spent his childhood in England's Lake District, and after a career in journalism that took him to Russia, China, and Egypt (interspersed with summers of cruising through the Baltic Sea and the canals of Europe), he retired to Coniston where he could practice his favorite pastimes of sailing and fishing and where he wrote the Swallows and Amazons series.
