Caproni alla griglia. Riesci a immaginare di trovare l'oro. È proprio quello che le Rondini, le Amazzoni, Dick e Dorothea decidono di cercare sulle colline alte sopra il lago. Ma .È un'estate calda e secca e l'acqua scarseggia. E quel che .È peggio per i campeggiatori in difficoltà .È che hanno un concorrente: Squashy Hat. Chiunque può vedere che .È un cercatore d'oro. E che cappelli schiacciati. I bambini non hanno mai visto uno schiacciato più schiacciato. Chi .È e che tipo di trappole sta piazzando. Usando i piccioni per portare messaggi, sfidando pericolose miniere e incendi, le Rondini, le Amazzoni e la D's Mining Company devono rivendicare il loro diritto prima del loro temuto rivale.

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.
