Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Robert Graves continues the fictionalized account of the adventures of Sergeant Roger Lamb, an Irish soldier who fought for the British during the American Revolutionary War. Featuring a new introduction by Madison Smartt Bell.Sergeant Roger Lamb is in a prison camp near Boston with 3,000 other soldiers in General Johnny Burgoyne's army who surrendered at the Battle of Saratoga. Lamb is a non-commissioned officer in the British Army who served in America during the American War of Independence. But the American Congress refuses to ratify a repatriation agreement and Lamb plans an escape. He manages to make his way through General Washington's lines and rejoins Cornwallis in the Carolinas, fighting with him until Yorktown. Then he makes another remarkable escape to rejoin the British in New York.The second in a two-book series, this account is inspired by the real-life Sergeant Lamb's personal memoirs. Renowned poet, classicist, and novelist Robert Graves traces the sergeant's harrowing time in military service, providing a compelling, only barely fictionalized eyewitness account of a crucial point in American history.

In the autumn of 1939, Graves, short of money and recently returned from America after the end of his relationship with Laura Riding, "hit on the idea of writing a big popular novel about the American War of Independence, taking as his narrator the historical figure of Sergeant Roger (Gerry) Lamb of the Ninth . . . This project would enable him to combine some disparate purposes: he could exorcize his own painful experience of America, while at the same time making use of his military knowledge and settling a few old scores (for instance, he turned his former friend Geoffrey Taylor into a satanic clergyman). Exactly a decade after the Roman Emperor Claudius had first engrossed Graves' attention to such profitable effect, the Dublin-born Sergeant Lamb came to his creative and, above all, financial rescue." (Powell, "Sergeant Lamb to the Rescue," TLS , Issue 5047, p. 19) By the following April, Graves had completed his vast novel and decided to divide it into two manageable volumes of about 90,000 words each. George Orwell, writing in the New Statesman, praised its accurate historical detail and convincingly eighteenth-century prose. N. B.
