Description

Harry Flashman, the unrepentant bully of his schooldays, has a talent for getting into trouble. With a Victoria Cross and a penchant for languages and women, he's a reluctant military hero who finds himself at the forefront of many defining battles of the 19th century. This first instalment of The Flashman Papers follows Flashman's adventures as a secret agent in Afghanistan and his entry into the exclusive company of Lord Cardigan's Hussars, culminating in his most infamous hour - the Retreat from Kabul. A story of villainy, shamelessness, and excitement, observed with the cynical eye of a scoundrel who was honest only in reporting what he saw.
