AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Adventure of an Australian tourist at St Paul's, London. Taking his last chance to see the famous cathedral the tourist persuades the verger to let him in at night. Repairs are being made and when the traveller idly grasps a rope suspended from the centre of the dome he finds himself being raised to an appalling height from the ground. He is saved only by the verger's quick thinking. (PB)
