Wickham is not the only (or even most) charming and seductive cad in a #militia uniform in 19th century writing. Meet Sgt. Francis 'Frank' Troy. He is VERY good at sword drills.

CrowCAH OMG yes he is! Loved this book and movie; such imagery! 7y
LeahBergen Dashing Frank! 👍🏻 7y

“I remember the time when I liked a red coat myself very well - and indeed I do still at my heart”.

Mrs. Bennet is just as fascinated by the #militia officers just as her daughters when the officers arrived at Meryton. 🙄

LeahBergen It‘s that whole “men in uniform” thing. 😆 7y
CrowCAH So sorry I missed this; it‘s recorded! 7y

This is book 1 of the Starbuck Chronicles by Bernard Cornwell, which covers his adventures during the major battles of the American Civil War. So far only read this one, but do want to get to the rest of the series. This one was a very enjoyable and informative read. #militia #150PnPCoverParty

LeahBergen This is waiting patiently on my shelf. 👍🏻 7y
CrowCAH I‘ve yet to read any Cornwall, but hear great things about his historicals! 7y
Andrew65 @CrowCAH He has written some wonderful historical fiction, obviously being British and not knowing the history that well not best to judge the Accuracy of the history of the American Civil War. (edited) 7y

Andrew65 @LeahBergen I have the rest of this series sitting on my shelf waiting, as well as all 21 Sharpe books! 7y
LeahBergen @Andrew65 My husband binged all 21 Sharpe books last year. 😂😂 7y
Andrew65 @LeahBergen I spent years collecting all 21 of them, now got them stalled at the end of the India books and need to move forward with him into Europe. Kudos to him! 🙌🙌🙌 7y

Lydia‘s dirty little #militia fantasy ... “tenderly flirting with at least six”. 😏

#150PnPCoverParty

CrowCAH That‘s a lot of men to keep entertained! She‘s such a big flirt! 7y
AlaMich That illustration reminds me of that early scene in Gone With The Wind at the picnic where Scarlett is sitting surrounded by her “beaux.” 😂 7y
Susannah Ha ha! Love your emoji. 7y

batsy My first thought: "Exhausting" ? 7y
rubyslippersreads @AlaMich @CrowCAH I think Lydia and Scarlett have a lot in common. 😄 7y
rubyslippersreads Are those illustrations by Helen Sewell? I have Sense & Sensibility illustrated by her, and some kids' books, but covet this edition. 😄 7y
LeahBergen @CrowCAH She is! 😆 7y
LeahBergen @AlaMich You‘re right; it does! 👍🏻 7y
LeahBergen @batsy Right? Yeesh. 😆 7y
LeahBergen @rubyslippersreads They ARE by Helen Sewell. Good eye! 😘 7y

Do you know how hard it was to not use Outlander for this? Anyway, I started thinking of the human army in the Hobbit (it might have worked) and ran a search. What comes up? Some game somewhere where there is a freaking Hobbit #Militia!! I have no clue what this is but look at how cute with their little weapons 😍 Totally using it for today's prompt. 😂
@CrowCAH @LeahBergen

LeahBergen They look pretty scary. 😂😂 7y
