The Sword of Honour Trilogy: Men at Arms, Officers and - Softcover
Guy Crouchback is a Catholic and a gentleman commissioned into the Royal Corps of Halberdiers during WWII. His encounters with the absurd reality of life in the British Army - strewn with bureaucratic blunders and hilarious military debacles - are paired with a passionate re-acquaintance with his ex-wife, which together test to the limit both his undying love for Virginia and his profound sense of duty.
