Maggiori informazioni sul libro

A crazy, breathless, steam-powered adventure of the First World War. C.S. Forester is at his most entertaining in this story of the missionary woman and the Cockney mechanic marooned in German Central Africa. As they fight their ramshackle old launch downriver 'to strike a blow for England'. the 'African Queen' seems to breathe the spirit of Hornblower himself.
