Book Description
Brigadier Gerard is the hero of a series of 17 historical short stories, a play, and a major character in a novel by the British writer sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The hero, Etienne Gerard, is a Hussar officer in the French Army during the Napoleonic Wars. Gerard's most notable attribute is his vanity – he is utterly convinced that he is the bravest soldier, greatest swordsman, most accomplished horseman and most gallant lover in all France. Gerard is not entirely wrong, since he displays notable bravery on many occasions, but his self-satisfaction undercuts this quite often. Obsessed with honour and glory, he is always ready with a stirring speech or a gallant remark to a lady. Pretty illustrations by Vladislav Trotsenko provide you with new impressions from reading this legendary story.
