Collection of feature films inspired by the Great War. In 'I Was a
Spy' (1933), Martha Cnockhaert (Madeleine Carroll) works as a spy
in a German hospital, acting for the allies. Aided by orderly
Stephan (Herbert Marshall), Martha plots to blow up a German
ammunition dump. When Martha accompanies a German Commandant to
Brussels, a change in the Kaiser's movements inadvertently reveals
Martha's true purpose. '1914 All Out' (1987) is a made-for-TV drama
set during World War I in a quiet Yorkshire village. While the
locals are enjoying a Bank Holiday cricket match, their fun is cut
short when war breaks out and the men go off to fight for their
country. Set in the Scottish Orkney Islands during the First World
War, 'The Spy In Black' (1939) tells the story of three German
spies plotting to sink the British fleet. When U-Boat Captain Hardt
(Conrad Veidt) makes contact with his beautiful co-conspirator
(Valerie Hobson), he falls in love with her, but she is already
having an affair with the third spy in their group, Royal Navy
traitor Lieutenant Ashington (Sebastian Shaw).

Although he was primarily a screenwriter and actor, since his
death, Roland Pertwee's written work has attracted increasing
amounts of critical attention. 'The River God' is now regarded as
one of the finest British fishing stories ever written. Many of the
finest English sport stories, particularly those dating back to the
1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable,
high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
