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.
