O knihe

Book 8 of The Speedicut Papers is primarily concerned

with Speedicut's involvement with the young Winston Churchill

on the North-West Frontier of India, in the Sudan at the Battle of

Omdurman and in the Second Boer War, during which Speedicut is captured

along with Churchill. When not acting as nursemaid to Britain's future

greatest Prime Minister, Speedicut plays a central role, invariably

with disastrous consequences, in the notorious Jameson Raid,

Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee and the assassination

of the Empress of Austria.


"Speedicut's opinions on the great figures of our time

give a whole new meaning to the word iconoclast…"

Dr Samuel Johnson
"If all the men and women Speedicut slept with were laid end to end,

I wouldn't be at all surprised."

Dorothy Parker
"In defeat, defiance; in victory, magnanimity; in peace, goodwill -

except where that shit, Speedicut, is concerned."

Winston S Churchill
