Summary
Summary
Malcolm Greene is a Scotsman, recruited to fight for Sweden under the greatest soldier of the century, Gustavus Adolphus. Malcolm throws himself into the fray in the great battles of the first half of the Thirty Years War. In the ranks of the Scotch Brigade, we meet Mackay, Hepburn, and Munro—heroes all and destined for greatness. He confronts rebellious peasants, goes undercover as a clockmaker, and in the end, marries the Thelka, with whom he will live out his days on the moors of Scotland.

Author Bio: G. A. Henty
George Alfred Henty (1832–1902) was born in Trumpington, England. He studied at Cambridge but left without his degree to serve in the Crimean War. After several failed attempts at careers, he decided in 1865 to become a writer, beginning as a correspondent for the Standard. He wrote his first boys’ adventure, Out of the Pampas, in 1868, and its popularity spurred him to write some eighty more children’s books.
