The Thirty-Nine Steps

The Restored 1915 First-Edition Text, with Sixteen Original Illustrations

John Buchan

A bored man in a London flat opens his door to a frightened stranger who says he is already dead. Four days later the stranger is dead on the floor, and Richard Hannay is on a train north with a notebook he cannot read — the chase that invented the form. The restored 1915 text, with sixteen original illustrations.
