Arthur Ransome was born in Leeds in 1884 and went to school at Rugby. He was in Russia in 1917, and witnessed the Revolution, which he reported for the Manchester Guardian.

After escaping to Scandinavia, he settled in the Lake District with his Russian wife where, in 1929, he wrote Swallows and Amazons. And so began a writing career which has produced some of the real children's treasures of all time. In 1936 he won the first ever Carnegie Medal for his book, Pigeon Post.

Ransome died in 1967. He and his wife Evgenia lie buried in the churchyard of St Paul's Church, Rusland, in the southern Lake District.

Not what I expected
My kids and I loved reading Swallows and Amazons together. When we learned it was only book one of a series, I eagerly ordered this product. The description and picture of this series led me to believe it was from David Godine Publishing. Sadly it is not. They are lower quality and not what I was expecting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great series for all ages
Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2023
The first three books of this series are the best. They have given me and my children lifelong pleasure and joy to go with our love of sailing. Not to be missed. I can't imagine what possessed someone tobgive it one star.
