Roger the Bold

Another action packed boys adventure book from Brereton. He began writing his famous adventure books prior to the First World War. His experiences of life in the army as a medical officer allowed him to write the most gripping tales, with such accuracy and attention to detail that the reader can almost hear the roar of guns and feel the sun beating down in far flung tropical theatres of conflict. This novel tells the story of the conquest of the Americas by the Spanish Conquistadors in 1519.
