The author of the wonderful Flashman series of novels gives his take on his life and modern times. A delightfully autobiography and commentary by one of my favorite authors. Best known for Flashman, George MacDonald Fraser has written everything from history to screenplays. He shares all this with us in this very politically incorrect book. Touching on everything from working with Steve McQueen and Arnold Schwarzenegger to what is wrong with Britain and the world in general today. A very funny look at one writer and the human species in general.
