"The Riddle of the Sands" is a nautical tale of a two-man sailing trip along the German coast at the beginning of the twentieth century. An accomplished yachtsman, Childers uses this realistic and portentous story to warn Britain of the increasing threat posed by Germany before the First World War. Contents include: "The Letter", "The Dulcibella", "Davies", "Retrospect", "Wanted, A North Wind", "Schlei Fiord", "The Missing Page", "The Theory", "I Sign Articles", and "His Chance". Other notable works by this author include: "The Riddle of the Sands" (1903), "The Framework for Home Rule" (1911), and "War and the Arme Blanche" (1910). This classic work is now being republished in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an excerpt from "Remembering Sion" by Ryan Desmond.
