Sobre IBD

The first thorough and in depth biography of Nevil Shute, covering his life from childhood to his last years in Australia. Nevil Shute was the world famous and best-selling author of 'A Town Like Alice', 'On the Beach', and over 20 other novels. 'Parallel Motion is the first true biography of Nevil Shute. Based on meticulous research, it contains a wealth of information about this wonderful (and often-overlooked) novelist. Biographer John Anderson, is, like Shute, an engineer, and he brings that knowledge and Shute spirit to this long-overdue chronicle of Shute's life. ' - Michael S. Berliner, Editor, Letters of Ayn Rand
