Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life in the Legion, From a Soldier´s: Point of View I have held a commission in the British Army and I have served in the ranks; I have been a traveller in strange places; I have lived a life full of vicissitude of sorts; and - I was for five strenuous and not unhappy years in the French Foreign legion. I am proud of having been a legionary, and it has hurt me to read the misleading account of life in the Legion given in a recent book written by a German deserter, who was admittedly but a few months in the corps and never got beyond the depot. As the reviewers - among them a lady!!! - seem to have swallowed the German deserter´s exaggerations without even a gulp, I would like to ask them if they would expect to get a dependable picture of life in a British regiment from a "King´s Hard Bargain" who happened to be a native of a country with which we had a long outstanding account to settle some day. I imagine not. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
