Micah Clarke

by Sir Arthur Conan DOYLE (1859 - 1930)

Of the Man with the Drooping Lids

This book tells the story of Micah Clarke's adventures. As a boy he follows his rather romantic notions of what it means to be a soldier and how to find adventure. But over the course of his career, adventure finds him, and it is not always quite as fun as Micah had pictured it to be - especially as he finds himself involved in a rebellion. - Summary by Carolin
