I did come across WDMTGTS when acting librarian at a school in western Sydney in the early sixties but didn't read it. My first real acquaintance with the series was the film "Swallows and Amazons" which I picked up on video in the late seventies (about the time of my fortieth birthday) during our summer holidays. Upon returning to school I found the book in the school library and that started me building my own collection of the whole series. I have read them all several times and expect to read them all again.
