| Sharpe's Story by The Sharpe Appreciation Society Sharp's Story |
| The "booklet" details the story of the creation of the book series written by Bernard Cornwell. The story line includes the authors creation of the character (and other characters) throughout the series origination and background. Bernard Cornwell gives insight into the creation of his character and story lines based (loosely) upon actual historical events. The booklet does give some good insight into the book series but unfortunately also takes away from the effect of the series by casting doubt upon the true historical facts interspersed throughout the series. |
| Sharpe's Story by The Sharpe Appreciation Society "Must read" Sharpe book |
If you are a "Sharpie", then this book is a "Must read"! Not only do you get background on much of the Sharpe series, but also a very insightful look into the author's history & philosophy. A quick, invaluable read for those who can't get enough of Sharpe.

| If you love the Sharpe series, this is a must read. Bernard Cornwell goes into some detail on how he came to write this series and why. It is an amazing story of a search for fiction on the Napoleonic wars from the land lubbers point of view. He had read C.S. Forester and Patrick O'Brian andlonged for something on land. He also talks about his upbringing, which had a lot of influence on various aspects of the stories, such as his treatment of religion. |
