Popis knihy:
Arthur Conan Doyle's The Exploits of Brigadier Gerard (1896) is a series of stories about the life of a Hussar in the French Army during the Napoleonic Wars. Gerard is convinced that he is the bravest soldier, greatest swordsman, and most skilled horseman. Doyle satirizes the conventional English view of the French as well as the English manners and attitudes. Arthur Conan Doyle was born in Edinburgh in 1859. Sent off to boarding school, he cut his teeth as a story-teller amusing his schoolmates with tales and writing letters home to his mother. He practiced medicine and, in 1900, volunteered as a medic in Africa during the Boer War' he was later knighted for his service. Doyle lost a son, two brothers in law, and two nephews to the Great War. He is remembered for the Sherlock Holmes stories and his novel The Lost World.Hodnocení uživatelů:
