As with his previous adventures, Flashman at the Charge is rich in those qualities which won him honour and fame in his own time and have endeared him to hosts of loyal admirers since — cowardice, treachery, lechery and an unfailing instinct for survival, coupled with his own caustic humour and unsparing honesty as a historian. Indeed, history is hardly history unless Flashman is there to observe it in fleeting glimpses over his shoulder. Vissza
