Il classico per bambini per eccellenza: lunghe giornate estive piene di avventure. John, Susan, Titty e Roger salpano con la loro barca, Swallow, verso un'isola deserta per una gita estiva in campeggio. Esplorare e giocare ai marinai è un'avventura di per sé, ma l'isola riserva ancora più emozioni. Due feroci pirati amazzoni, Nancy e Peggy, li sfidano alla guerra e ne consegue un'estate di battaglie e alleanze. "La mia infanzia non sarebbe stata la stessa senza questo libro. Ha creato un mondo intero da esplorare, che è rimasto a lungo nell'immaginazione dopo aver letto l'ultima pagina" - Marcus Sedgwick

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.
