Force 10 From Navarone NEW––BroDart Dust Jacket Cover Author: Alistair MacLean First US Edition 1968 Cymbeline Productions, Ltd. Doubleday Company, Inc. CAB Comment–– I have to say I am a big fan of both of the movies “The Guns Of Navarone” and “Force 10 From Navarone”. Each are classics in their own way and, as well, so are the original Alistair MacLean novels. I love finding my own copies on my own bookshelf––great vintage action reads for when you just want to get away from the modern world, if only for a short read and for a little while. “Force 10 From Navarone” –– Wikipedia Synopsis: “Force 10 From Navarone begins immediately after the events portrayed in The Guns of Navarone, with Mallory and Miller assigned on a new mission code-named "Force 10". Mallory and Miller return to Navarone to recruit their comrade Stavros (who stayed behind in the film, but not in the book). They are joined by three young British Royal Marine Commandos, and are parachuted into Nazi-occupied, frozen, war-torn Yugoslavia. There they attempt to aid the Yugoslav Partisans in their battle against the Nazi German occupiers and their Chetnik collaborators. As with all MacLean novels, the true mission is secret. Everyone, including the Marine Commandos, is misled. The real mission (known only to Mallory, Miller, Andrea and a Partisan General) is to rescue captured British agents. As usual with MacLean, not all things are quite what they seem, and like The Guns of Navarone one of the mission(s) is to try to save a significant number of partisans from a certain death in a German offensive. In the melee of double-crosses and triple-crosses, things do not go as planned, and distrust is rife among allies and enemies alike.” Always Great Things @ www.poetrope.com Books––Films––Music. BOOK PHOTOS: All book pictures are taken in bright white LED photo light, and thus brightness, contrast, and colors of books may appear more intense in photos than in person in the warmer incandescent lamp light of your home. In simpler terms, your new vintage books will fit right in with your cozy abode. Please remember: All books offered by Texas POEtrope are in need of a loving new home, and (other than C.A. Broadstone autographed works) have had previous owners, resulting in relative wear. Thus, some books possess more interesting scars telling of their journey through the world, and life, than others. Please study book pictures closely to be sure the book(s) shown are for you. Every book with a dust jacket has been carefully placed in a BroDart protective archival cover. All sales are final.
