Description
The Man Without a Memory, by Arthur Marchmont, was published in 1919. Ward and Lock issued it in London, Melbourne, and Toronto. Marchmont's earlier adventure novels fill a front list. Thirty chapters make the book. Chapter one is called How I Lost My Memory. The narrator and Dick Gunter fly a fighting machine over the German lines. Two enemy machines come out to drive them off. The pair feign fear, then swing round and fire. One foe falls nose first, and the second soon follows. A third machine, unseen in the excitement, swoops from the clouds.
Later heads promise spies, a bread riot, and a poison charge. Rosa and Nessa share the love interest. Berlin names fill the list: Baron von Gratzen, Von Erstein, and the Tiergarten. A hue and cry and a hairsbreadth escape lead to the end.
