The Exploits of Brigadier Gerard: Arthur Doyle

Etienne Gerard is a hero of the French army, a veteran of the Napoleonic wars, and a vain and boastful teller of tales that star himself and his exploits. This collection of satiric short stories, originally published in The Strand magazine in the 1890s, includes:
- "How the Brigadier came to the Castle of Gloom"
- "How the Brigadier slew the brothers of Ajaccio"
- "How the Brigadier held the King"
- "How the King held the Brigadier"
- "How the Brigadier took the field against the
Marshal Millefleurs"
- "How the Brigadier played for a kingdom"
- "How the Brigadier won his Medal"
- "How the Brigadier was tempted by the Devil"
Hard to find in print, these lost comic classics from the creator of Sherlock Holmes will delight fans of pulp literature.
