Description: THE THIRTY-NINE STEPS AND THE POWER HOUSEby John Buchan2003 Folio Society With SlipcaseNew, MINT CONDITION! The novel tells the story of Richard Hannay, who is thrust into a plot involving the theft of crucial military intelligence by German anarchists. Hannay meets a man who claims to be investigating a German spy ring known as the Black Stone. Hannay lets the man hide in his flat, but later finds him murdered. Hannay and the Foreign Officer deduce that the "thirty-nine steps" refers to the number of steps that would need to be taken from a house down to an escape yacht waiting in the harbor. Hannay is able to foil the plan, and the Germans are arrested. I am helping liquidate an estate for a friend. Her husband was an avid collector of books. I have hundreds to list, many rare and hard to find books. Please check back often as I will be listing new ones every day. Feel free to ask if you are looking for anything in particular. I will be listing many Folio Society books as well as the entire collection from the 100 Greatest Books ever written by Easton Press.
