Insightful, thanks.

Recently I read Kidnapped to Yotam. I like that it's a book written over a century ago, talking about around a century earlier (and commenting on how much things have changed!), but it was also important because I tracked down the 1970 translation. The language is dramatically different and richer than, I think, what we have in today's adventure books (or any book).
