    Magnificent. I possess a letter from the genius George McDonald Fraser which he wrote in response to my long letter of gratitude for the endless joy his Flashman series has given me.

    I agree Timothy West 'is' Flashman, fantastic narrative with all the characters as well, I have read and listened to all of the Flashman books over again and never tire of them....

    The background noise gives me the impression of sitting in a dingy clubroom as old Flashman recounts his reminiscences.

    The Flashman Papers is truly fantastic: utterly engrossing. Fraser was a great writer, and West's narration is terrific.

    Timothy West is Flashman, l am unable to listen to any other narater reading Flashman. Mr West in BBC Gentleman Jack was at his superlative best. It is well worth watching.

    That bit of eavesdropping from the musician's gallery is repeated in Where Eagles Dare & echoed on the film The 4 Musketeers - the latter of which had its screenplay written by GMF.

    LOVE IT!!! THANK YOU!!! I was avoiding the series because of nightmarish narrator David Case ( Frederickson) Who's so bad that he has to run under 2 names.

    Amongst the Dakota, Arapahoe and Cheyenne the Gary Owen was a song used to frighten children and to be listened for as warning of the enemy.

    'This excellent story was recorded to tape, and this print was obviously made after it had been stored for some time due to the "print through" (it sounds like echo that happens before the main signal).

    Amazing, thank you! I have the latest version of this, but it doesn’t compare to Timothy West’s narration.

      I am unable to get through a book narrated by Mr Case. There is one problem with the Flashman books and that is there are nowhere near enough.

      @@hobozero9966 Brother I have never even heard of Flashman and never been a fan of most British humor. I can't thank you enough for bringing these books to us. All those words like cad, bounder, and all the others I've never found a use for fit the man perfectly as only he can tell it. It's going to take a while to get through these and like others who have commented here I am going to have to read them in their proper order. Thank you for providing the audio versions. I haven't been able to focus well enough to actually read a book in a long time and must rely on them and very often they are read so badly or by a machine that just doesn't work. These are very enjoyable.

      Chronologically it comes before this book I believe.

    • @howwwwwyyyyy
      @howwwwwyyyyy 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's hard to work out because GMF didn't write them in chronological order.Flashman and the redskins is in 2 years 1849 & 1876-of course-has to get Flashy at the little big horn.

    • @markmooroolbark252
      @markmooroolbark252 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for giving me so much joy and reviving many happy memories. My dear dad introduced me to Flashy one night and we shared a mutual love for him for the rest of our lives.
