Having killed off Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle began a new series of taleson a very different theme. Brigadier Gerard is an officer in Napoleon’s army—ecklesslybrave, engagingly openhearted, and unshakable, if not a little absurd, in his devotionto the enigmatic Emperor. The Brigadier’s wonderful comic adventures, long establishedin the affections of Conan Doyle’s admirers as second only to those of the incomparableHolmes, are sure to find new devotees among the ardent fans of such writers as PatrickO’Brian and George MacDonald Fraser.
