The Exploits and Adventures of Brigadier Gerard - Taylor Anderson - Bog

This book contains the complete series of short stories of Brigadier Gerard, both The Exploits of Brigadier Gerard and The Adventures of 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.

It is the sequel to the Exploits of Brigadier Gerard and follows Gerard on even more adventures.
