dbo:abstract
  • Nechtěli jsme na moře (1937, We Didn't Mean to Go to Sea) je sedmý díl románového cyklu anglického spisovatele Arthura Ransoma o prázdninových dobrodružstvích dvou dětských sourozeneckých skupin, které se nazývají Vlaštovky a Amazonky, a jejich přátel. Kniha vypráví o tom, jak se Vlaštovky (sourozenci Walkerovi) setkají o prázdninách, které tráví v přímořské oblasti, s mladým námořníkem Jimem a na jeho plachetnici Hastrman se chystají na plavbu po řece. Shodou nešťastných okolností je ale Hastrman jen s dětmi na palubě odnesen proudem z přístavu a ocitá se v mlze a větrné bouři na moři. V obavě před nebezpečnými mělčinami při pobřeží se děti vydají s Hastrmanem na volné Severní moře a plují z Anglie do Holandska. (cs)

(In Swallows and Amazons his ship was at Malta but under orders for Hong Kong (as also stated in Missee Lee). The book features a small sailing cutter, the Goblin, which is almost identical to Ransome's own boat Nancy Blackett. Ransome sailed Nancy Blackett across to Flushing by the same route as part of his research for the book. The navigational detail and the geography are both correct for the period when the story is set, unlike other books in the series. (en)
