The General Danced At Dawn - first UK edition

by George MacDonald Fraser

First of the three "McAuslan" books, the series of tales recounting the adventures of Private McAuslan, J., the Dirtiest Soldier of the World (alias the Tartan Caliban, or the Highland Division's answer to Peking Man). McAuslan's talent for the comic catastrophe is as sure as ever, waking happy memories of an Army life and characters that are fast fading away.  

This book is very scarce in any state with a dust wrapper; hence HIGHLY collectible.  A NF, unmarked copy in a VG, slightly marked, nicked and rubbed, price-clipped dj. Jacket is slightly edge-worn, browned at edges, but no major chipping.
