Classic Spy Thrillers app for iPhone and iPad

This eBook is a collection of eight classic spy stories by various authors. These tales of espionage were published between 1821 and 1915. Each story was widely read soon after its publication and several have since served as models for contemporary spy fiction. “Kim,” “The Riddle of the Sands,” and “The Thirty-Nine Steps,” moreover, frequently appear on lists of the best novels of all time (independent of genre).

The complete list of spy thrillers in this eBook is as follows:
+”The Spy” by James Fenimore Cooper (1821)
+”The Adventure of the Naval Treaty” by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1893)
+”The Adventure of the Second Stain” by Arthur Conan Doyle (1904)
+”Kim” by Rudyard Kipling (1901)
+”The Riddle of the Sands” by Erskine Childers (1903): Note that we could not include the maps and charts which appeared in the original print copy of this work as they were not included in our digital source material.
