O knihe

Book 2 of The Speedicut Papers continues the

first hand account of the life, loves and adventures of

Jasper Speedicut: charmer, sexual libertine and reluctant hero.

It is also a unique account of events in the British Empire and

beyond, comprising a series of linked adventures and anecdotes

which, when taken together, comprise a fascinating insight

into many of the half-remembered or wholly-forgotten

events of the second half of the 19th century.


"It is a matter of considerable regret to me that

The Speedicut Papers were not available to me when I wrote

my History of the English Speaking Peoples."

Sir Winston Churchill
"This book contains the only lucid explanation of the Schleswig-Holstein

question ... to which I've completely forgotten the answer."

Henry Temple, 3rd Viscount Palmerston
"I was delighted to discover that, like me, Speedicut

has committed every sin in the Decalogue."

Sir Richard Burton
"Having read this remarkable narrative I would swim

the Hellespont to meet the man who wrote it."

George, 6th Baron Byron
"Speedicut's adventures in Berlin have given me

an idea for a book."

Bram Stoker
