The Sharpe Series by Bernard Cornwell: These books about a British soldier in the Peninsular war mix adventure, romance and superb period feel. The result is an exciting and enjoyable read. Once you start you won't rest until you've read the whole series. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
The Complete Brigadier Gerard by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle: The hilarious exploits of a French hussar set in the Napoleonic wars. These short stories about a heroic numbskull are as delightful now as when they were written about a hundred years ago. RECOMMENDED.
