The Swallows, Amazons, and friends search for gold in the Lake
District Hills--camping out, evading dangers, and staying in touch
via homing pigeon. Nancy and Peggy Blackett receive a letter from
their Uncle Jim who's on his way home after failing to find
treasure in South America. When they hear a tale about a lost gold
mine in the Lake District hills, Nancy and Peggy decide to find the
mine as a surprise for their uncle. The children comb the nearby
hills, while being shadowed by a mysterious figure they dub
"squashy hat." Undeterred by drought, sudden brushfires, and the
continuing presence of Squashy Hat, the young prospectors persevere
in their quest--with surprising results (aided by Dick's knowledge
of chemistry). Friendship and resourcefulness, dangers and rescues:
Arthur Ransome's Swallows and Amazons series has stood the test of
time. More than just great stories, each one celebrates
independence and initiative with a colorful, large cast of
characters. Pigeon Post (originally published in 1936) is the sixth
title in the Swallows and Amazons series, books for children or
grownups, anyone captivated by a world of adventure, exploration,
and imagination.
