Synopsis "Greenmantle"

Greenmantle is the second of ve novels by John Buchan featuring the character of Richard Hannay, rst published in 1916 by Hodder & Stoughton, London. In Greenmantle (1916) Richard Hannay, hero of The Thirty-Nine Steps, travels across war- torn Europe in search of a German plot and an Islamic Messiah. He is joined by three more of Buchan's heroes: Peter Pienaar, the old Boer Scout; John S. Blenkiron, the American determined to ght the Kaiser; and Sandy Arbuthnot, Greenmantle himself, modelled on Lawrence of Arabia. The intrepid four move in disguise through Germany to Constantinople and the Russian border to face their enemies: the grotesque Stumm and the evil beauty of Hilda von Einem.The book was very popular when published, and was read and enjoyed by Robert Baden-Powell and by the Russian imperial family as they awaited the outcome of the Revolution in 1917.
