My father, now almost 84, bought and read all the Flashman books, and some of his other novels, and would probably go for this sale like a shot if he was fit and able! It would be a shame for the collection to be split up... nice to think someone would come along and buy the lot, wouldn't it?

Cornflower

Yes, it would, and I'd love to see it as a whole.
Both the Flashman books and the McAuslan stories are popular in this house.

Hi. Thanks for your interest in our sale. Do come and pop in to the shop in June when the whole library will be on display - it is really quite special. And do keep an eye out for his autobiographical essay which we think is fantastic and a great insight into a wonderful writer. We are going to publish it as a special edition in late May.
