A propos de cet article

Dale of the Mounted Atlantic Assignment; by Joe Holliday; Thomas Allen, Limited, Toronto, Canada, 1956. Printed and bound in England. Presentation from the author to a friend “in appreciation of the model of the Forrestal”, dated ’63. Joe Holliday was born in 1910 in Gibraltar and moved to Toronto in 1919 and has lived there ever since. His father was a police constable so understandable that he would write police novels down the road, featuring Dale a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. During the early 1940’s he was publicity-photographer with deHavilland Aircraft of Canada, helping publicize the grand work of their Mosquito bombers in overseas operations. This provided him with aircraft knowledge that stands him in good stead in his adventure tales. Dale of the Mounted books were once very popular, each landing in early November so as to take advantage of Christmas gift giving. The dedication – For the Men of the Royal Canadian Navy particularly the crew of HMCS BONADVENTURE (aircraft carrier). From Chapter One – The new Canadian carrier, HMCS PEGASUS, rode the waves as proudly as did the veterans around her. On the bridge, standing by the Captain and looking completely foreign in this brisk atmosphere governed by naval uniforms, was a sharp-eyed, slim young man attired in a light-grey civilian suit. He was Dale Thompson, Constable of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. It was an unusual, a rare circumstance. In the last few weeks, since the carrier had been commissioned for sea duty, a number of mysterious happenings had occurred. It was decided that an undercover investigation offered the best means of trying to find the reasons behind the acts, and perhaps the very culprits at work. This book, 158 pages is in near-fine condition, but it is missing the dust jacket.…
