Hi Bernard, I have earlier read some of the Sharpe stories, but recently decided to re-read them all in chronological order. I am halfway through Rifles which includes detailed references to Tiger (Tippoo), Triumph & Fortress. What’s “odd” about that?? Well those 3 books appear to have been written 9 or 10 years AFTER Rifles!! Now that’s what I call PLANNING!! From one ex-“Peculiar” to another, Well Done!! Could you suggest 7 numbers for next years Lotto? regards Ken from Leigh-on-Sea
