A Rogue On Our Side: Bernard Cornwell Discusses His Character Richard Sharpe On The 30th Anniversary of 'Sharpe's Eagle'



Bernard Cornwell, the author of a great series of historical novels featuring the Napoleonic-era fictional British rogue and soldier Richard Sharpe, was recently interviewed on a video that can be viewed at Youtube.com.

The author talks about the phenomenal success of Sharpe on the eve of Harper Collins' release of a commemorative edition of every novel in the series. This marks the 30th anniversary of the publication of the first of them, 'Sharpe's Eagle'.
