NEVIL SHUTE

Nevil Shute (1889-1960) was a British novelist and aeronautical engineer. He wrote classic tales of adventure with his engineering and aviation experiences often providing the backdrop. Shute draws comparison with a range of writers from Graham Greene and Robert Louis Stevenson to Rudyard Kipling and H.E. Bates.

Following the successful Nevil Shute relaunch in 2009, Vintage Classics are reissuing four more of his titles in July 2013. The covers follow the series style established by illustrator Mick Wiggins.
