Any metal workers out there who like Neville Shute's books should
check out Amazon or Barnes & Noble's web sites for The Mannerheim
Line and The Last Flight of the Blue Goose. Here are some reader
comments from Amazon that got me hooked:

Reviewer: A reader
As a Nevil Shute fan I always wondered what happened to the Viceroy
parked in the rear of the Airspeed Ltd. hangar that Shute described in
his book Slide Rule. Now I know. Airspeed Ltd., Nevil Norway and the
Viceroy are all packed into The Mannerheim Line. If you like Nevil
Shute you'll like this book--it's a great read.

Reviewer: A reader
WWII story and mystery with a twist will prove a good read for history
buffs and mystery fans alike. A lot of interesting detail on WWII
vintage aircraft with a good plot. Anyone who enjoyed "Trustee from the
Toolroom" by Neville Shute will also enjoy The Last Flight of the Blue
Goose.

I was very interested to read this as the house I have lived in for the last
40 years was built by a friend and colleague of Neville Norway. He told
me that Neville was a frequent visitor to the house, which also played
host to Amy Johnson and Battle of Britain ace Johnny Kent.

The old Airspeed factory was on Portsmouth airfield, just a few miles
from here, but the airfield site is now an industrial estate and has roads
named Norway Road and Neville Shute Road.

What, no mention of "Trustee from the Toolroom"?
