The Brigadier Gerard Stories

The Brigadier Gerard stories present Arthur Conan Doyle's humorous and action-packed tales of a brave but vain French officer during the Napoleonic Wars. Told with wit and flair, Gerard's misadventures across Europe combine historical detail with farcical charm. He may not be the sharpest strategist, but his courage and bombast make him one of Doyle's most beloved comic heroes.
