{"product_id":"flashman-and-the-tiger-9780385721080","title":"Flashman and the Tiger","description":"For the first time in four years comes a new book in George MacDonald Fraser's long-running series chronicling the adventures of Sir Harry Paget Flashman. Eleventh in the series, \u003cb\u003eFlashman and the Tiger\u003c\/b\u003e features not one, but three stories of international intrigue that find the fictional Flashman thrown headlong into historical events around the world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis time out Flashman is thwarting an attempted assassination of Austria's Emperor Franz Josef (\"The Road to Charing Cross\"); getting to the bottom of the Tranby Croft gaming scandal-and the Prince of Wales' involvement in it (\"The Subtleties of Baccarat\"); and, in the title story, impacting the Zulu war while hunting down a longtime enemy. At once meticulously faithful to fact and wildly fanciful, \u003ci\u003eFlashman and the Tiger\u003c\/i\u003e is an educational romp through the annals of history; thirty years after he began the series, Fraser is at the top of his game.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGeorge MacDonald Fraser was born in England and educated in Scotland.
