Harry Flashman: the unrepentant bully of Tom Browns schooldays now with a Victoria Cross has three main talents -- horsemanship facility with foreign languages & fornication. A reluctant military hero Flashman plays a key part in most of the defining military campaigns of the 19th century despite trying his utmost to escape them all.

A reluctant military hero Flashman plays a key part in most of the defining military campaigns of the 19th century despite trying his utmost to escape them all.

What follows is a deadly struggle that sees him scampering from the hallowed wicket of Lords to the jungle lairs of Borneo pirates; from a Newgate hanging to the torture pits of Madagascar & from Chinatowns vice dens to slavery in the palace of the female Caligula herself Queen Ranavalona of Madagascar. Had he known what lay ahead Flashman would never have taken up cricket seriously. ...
