Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mr. Beke of the Blacks No doubt Mr. Beke represented a type, but it was one of the less ordinary military types and entirely unlike the soldier of fiction, who has taken the place of the soldier of fortune on our bookstalls. Nothing could be less like "Booties," for instance (whose baby one has heard quite as much of as the subject merits), than Mr. Osric Beke, of the Black Northumberland Borderers. Nor was Mr. Beke without many points of difference from the ordinary officer of his standing (he was only a subaltern, of course) whom one really does meet in ante-rooms and in the military clubs in town.
