SINOPSE
The author of I, Claudius "recounts, in faithful and nicely atmospheric detail" the story of a British soldier during the American Revolution (The Philadelphia Inquirer).
The first in a two-book series, Sergeant Lamb’s America tells the story of Sgt. Roger Lamb, an Irish soldier who served on the British side during the American War of Independence. Based on real historical events and people, Sergeant Lamb recounts the British defeat and the capture of his unit at the Battle of Saratoga in a voice that’s both funny, insightful, and wise.
This fictionalized account is based on the journals of the historical Sergeant Roger Lamb, and is largely faithful to the true eyewitness account of the American Revolution told from the loser’s perspective. With his engaging, personable voice and basic decency of character, Sergeant Lamb reminds us that regardless of how history casts the British side, there were good men on both sides of this important conflict.
"It is a historical novel for which one has a very real respect." —The New York Times

SOBRE O AUTOR
Robert Graves
Robert Graves nasceu em 1895 em Wimbledon, filho do escritor irlandês Alfred Perceval Graves. Foi professor de Literatura Inglesa na universidade do Cairo em 1926 e eleito professor de Poesia em Oxford no ano 1961, mas vivia da escrita e ficou conhecido pelas suas perspectivas nada ortodoxas. A sua principal vocação foi a poesia, mas também escreveu obras de ficção e não ficção, sobretudo romances históricos, como A Filha de Homero, Eu, Cláudio ou Rei Jesus. Dos seus livros ensaísticos destacam-se A Deusa Branca, que apresenta uma nova perspectiva do impulso poético, a compilação do primeiro dicionário moderno de mitologia grega, Os Mitos Gregos, e a sua célebre autobiografia, Goodbye to All That. Em 1971 tornou-se Fellow do St. John’s College, Oxford. Morreu em Dezembro de 1985 em Maiorca, onde morava desde 1929. A sua editora britânica, a Penguin, chamou-lhe «o maior poeta do amor desde Donne.
