FRASER, George Macdonald - The General Danced at Dawn & Other Stories - (Hardcover in Jacket)

Did belong to a library before but book and unclipped wrapper survived well. >>> The General Danced at Dawn is a collection of short stories by George MacDonald Fraser, published first during 1970 and featuring a young Scottish lieutenant named Dand MacNeill. It is a generally fond fictionalization of life in the British army, specifically the Highland Infantry Division, soon after the end of the Second World War. >>> George MacDonald Fraser is best known for his Flashman series of historical novels, purportedly written by Harry Flashman, a fictional coward and bully originally created by Thomas Hughes in Tom Brown's School Days. The novels are presented as "packets" of memoirs written by the nonagenarian Flashman, who looks back on his days as a hero of the British Army during the 19th century.
