The African Queen by C.S. Forester [1964 PAPERBACK]
The African Queen by C.S. Forester
VINTAGE PAPERBACK [1964] BANTAM BOOKS
Vintage mass market paperback. Book is in excellent condition. Light cover wear and some creasing to spine. Reads like new.A classic story of adventure and romance - the novel that inspired the legendary movie starring Katherine Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart
As World War I reaches the heart of the African jungle, Charlie Allnutt and Rose Sayer, a dishevelled trader and an English spinster missionary, find themselves thrown together by circumstance. Fighting time, heat, malaria, and bullets, they make their escape on the rickety steamboat The African Queen...and hatch their own outrageous military plan. Originally published in 1935, The African Queen is a tale replete with vintage Forester drama - unrelenting suspense, reckless heroism, impromptu military manoeuvres, near-death experiences - and a good old-fashioned love story to boot.
