There were three McAuslan books: The General Danced at Dawn, McAuslan in the Rough, and The Sheikh and the Dustbin. The three were collected as The Complete McAuslan.
Not only are they funny and not PC at all but they are the only historical fiction that is extensively footnoted. I prefer listening to them because tge reader is excellent. Most are based on historical events and settings. Even tge 9ne based sort of 9n the Prisoner of Zenda.
I have highly recommended this series for close to 20 years
He got both tge Congressional Medal of Honor but tge Confederate version as well.
Thanks ...
I read all of the Flashman novels. I think the quality dropped off with the last few, but most of them were great.
