The General Danced at Dawn
"Written in the first person, and reading authentically, it purports to record episodes in the life of a young officer, newly commisioned into a Highland regiment after service in the ranks at the very end of the war...Twenty-five years have not dimmed Mr Fraser's recollections of those hectic days of soldiering.  One takes leave of his characters with real and grateful regret." - Sir Bernard Fergusson, Sunday Times"It's a while since I enjoyed a book so much, and, indeed, once I'd finished it, I felt like starting it all over again'  - Glasgow Evening Times
