| Summary |
Redmond Barry is a rogue Irishman who is forced to leave England when he mistakenly believes he has killed the fiancé of his paramour in a duel. Barry is robbed along the way and being penniless, he enlists in the British army to fight in the Seven Years War in Europe. Later he deserts the army only to be discovered as a charlatan by the Prussian Captain Potzdorf, and is then forced to serve in the much harsher Prussian army. At the end of the war, the Prussian police minister gives Barry a position in the household of the Chevalier de Balibari, a conman and gambler, so that Barry can spy on him. Barry and the Chevalier get on famously, as both are Irishmen. Barry becomes the pupil of the conman. In the company and under the tutelage of the Chevalier, Barry is admitted to the highest social circles in Europe.(From the UK, in English) (1975) |
