Description
Thomas Flashman's adventures continue in this second instalment of his life story. Set against the backdrop of India during the second Mahratta war and the Peace of Amiens in 1802, Thomas finds himself at the centre of treachery and scandal from the outset. As he navigates the complexities of high-stakes politics and military intrigue, Flashman must rely on a combination of luck, cunning, and good fortune to survive. From his encounters with fearless warriors and nomadic bandit tribes, to his illuminating visit to Paris, this book offers a unique perspective on some of the most pivotal events of its time. With a focus on the extraordinary feats of courage and recklessness that shaped the future of India and the career of a general who would later win a war in Europe, Flashman's account is both fascinating and thought-provoking.
