Description
Thomas Flashman's memoirs offer a unique perspective on one of the most tumultuous periods in European history. This third instalment shares many of the family traits that have become synonymous with the Flashman name, including a tendency to find himself at the centre of major events. In Spain and Portugal, Thomas Flashman witnesses both catastrophic incompetence and incredible courage, as he navigates the complexities of war and politics. His account includes new insights into famous battles, as well as lesser-known incidents and characters that have been lost to history. A fascinating glimpse into a bygone era, this memoir is based on confirmed historical facts. Accompanied by Lord Byron's dog, Flashman faces numerous challenges, including death from Polish lancers and a vengeful Spanish midget. With his flatulent horse playing a key role in one extraordinary action, Thomas Flashman's story is both astonishing and authentic.
