      About This Book

      Jacques St. Ives is a much-envied officer in Napoleon's army who requests a demotion in rank so as to avoid a number of duels from fellow officers, who may challenge only those of an equal rank. To his shock, Jacques is demoted to the rank of private by a furious commander and is sent to the front where, through a mishap, he is taken prisoner and sent to Scotland where the prison warden is a bored British officer, Major Farquar Chevening. The major lusts for a local lovely, Flora (Anna Friel), but she lusts for Jacques. A comedy farce set in 1813, with snappy one-liners, broad slapstick and loveable eccentrics.
