The Flashman Papers

Fraser’s comic novel, written as an autobiographical account, tells the story of Harry Flashman, the bully from Tom Brown’s Schooldays, in his own words. Beginning with his expulsion from Rugby School Flashman goes on to join Lord Cardigan’s Light Dragoons and despite his best efforts to avoid any fighting inadvertently becomes a national hero due to some unlikely exploits in the Anglo-Afghan War.
