NANCY
DREW
TOURS THE
WORLD
Although most of Nancy's sleuthing has been done in the River
Heights area lately, she has certainly trotted the globe in the past.
Undoubtedly Nancy's adventures in Africa and the Far East usually
coincided with Harriet Stratemeyer Adams's own excursions into these
areas - what a dandy way to write off the costs of the trip to
research expenses!
This page will take you through the international sites where
Nancy's mysteries have taken place. Nancy has also been many places
within the U.S.A. - has she visited your
state yet? Much to my dismay, I must report that, to my knowledge,
Nancy has only visited 6 out of the 7 continents; while the Hardy
Boys have made it to Antarctica, this is still on Nan's "Need To
Visit" list. Someday I hope to have a scrapbook showing some of the
sites Nancy has seen on her trips, as well as some pages from her
passport.
