Synopsis "The Exploits of Brigadier Gerard"

The Exploits of Brigadier Gerard is a collection of historical short stories about a fictional hero during the Napoleonic Wars. It was written in 1895 and follows a Hussar Officer in the French Army named, Etienne Gerard. He is noted as a stereotypical Frenchman from a Englishman's point of view. He is brash and full of vanity, though it is written from a perspective of the French to satirize the British attitude. Odin's Library Classics is dedicated to bringing the world the best of humankind's literature from throughout the ages. Carefully selected, each work is unabridged from classic works of fiction, nonfiction, poetry, or drama.
