The Speedicut Papers

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring the life of Jasper Speedicut, this series delves into the scandalous escapades of a charming libertine and reluctant hero in Victorian and Edwardian society. Through a memoir format, the narrative uncovers upper-class debauchery and significant historical events from 1821 to 1915, including the early careers of Lola Montez and Sweeney Todd, the formation of the IRA, and the first Anglo-Afghan War. The first volume, Flashman’s Secret, also reveals Nelson’s last words and a dark secret society within the British establishment.
