Flashman - first UK edition

by George MacDonald Fraser

This book started it all!  First book in the Flashman series, from "The Flashman Papers", the personal memoirs of one Harry Flashman, the selfsame bully of Thomas Hughes' "Tom Brown's Schooldays". Written between 1900 and 1905 they recount his days, between the late 1830's and the time of writing. 

Get to know 'Flashy', his early career as soldier, duelist, lover, imposter, coward, and hero, husband and father. Learn how he first makes a name for himself, earning fame and honor (somehow!) in the First Afghan War.

Near fine book with very small previous owner inscription. Dust jacket vg; sunned spine, with small stain on rear panel. Price intact.
