First edition. Inscribed by the author on the title page. "is for Alex, my fairly intelligent friend, & for Kathy, the only lawyer I could love. Thank you for your friendship, Feel Good ! ! ! ! ! ! 1 Bernard Cornwell." Fine in dust jacket. In this book Sharpe fights not only the forces of Napoleon, but the young and inexperienced commander of the Dutch troops as well as his wife's cowardly lover. From the tense moments as French troops cross the border, to thrashing of the British at Quatre Bras, to the slaughter of Ney's cavalry on the British squares, to Wellington's near-run triumph, this is a terrific blending of historical fact and captivating fiction.
