The Club of the Unconquered

For the first time in Russian — the most important collection of stories by the outstanding Scottish politician, historian, and writer, the 'father of the spy thriller' John Buchan (1875–1940). This author is primarily known for the novel 'The Thirty-Nine... Steps' and its glamorous adaptation created by Hitchcock. However, in the history of literature, Buchan is also regarded as an unparalleled master of the novella about travelers and adventurers — adventures that can sometimes lead to a real nightmare...
"Mr. Buchan's stories are remarkably vivid and convincing, especially in their descriptions of the supernatural. 'The Green Gnu Antelope' — a story about African witchcraft, 'The Wind in the Gallery' addresses fears of ancient Rome, but especially good is 'Skule Skerry' — about Arctic terror." H.P. Lovecraft.
