      For Judy

      ‘Bernard Cornwell set out to create a character who was credible enough to go through many adventures and both Sharpe himself and his Irish sergeant, Patrick Harper, are excellent creations. To my taste, Sharpe is much more interesting than Flashman’

      ‘Every man thinks meanly of himself for not having been a soldier’
