Read The Mouse On The Moon: eBook Edition (The Grand Fenwick Series 2) Storyline:

The Grand Fenwick Series, Book 2

Once again, the Duchy of Grand Fenwick, the smallest nation on earth, is confounding the world and proving that the shortest route from here to there can sometimes be the most outrageously delightful one.

Who could have imagined that when the United States gave the Duchy $50 million to join the space race, some of that money would actually be used for that purpose and not just for bathtubs and a birthday present for Her Grace Gloriana XII?

Spurred by the Count of Mountjoy, who wants proper plumbing for the kingdom and a Russian sable coat for Her Grace, and by Dr. Kokintz, who sees a potential new source of energy by mixing iron filings and Fenwick Pinot wine, a loan from the U.S. is arranged. A rocket is fired and Grand Fenwick lands on the moon before American and Russian astronauts.

The Duchy of Grand Fenwick, the world's smallest country, whose army of 20 longbow men defeated the United States in "The Mouse that Roared" is back again. The time is during the space race in the 1960s, and the Americans and the Soviets are racing to claim the moon. Both sides are vying for advantage both on the technical and propaganda front.
