The second volume of Waugh's masterful trilogy, Sword of Honour

Guy Crouchback is now attached to a commando unit undergoing training on the Hebridean isle of Mugg, where the whisky flows freely and HM forces have to show respect for the laird. But the comedy of Mugg is followed by the bitterness of Crete.

Praise for Officers and Gentlemen

A maverick historian

The Atlantic

Waugh's unsparing bitterness is one of the things that makes his writing so good

Daily Mail

To know as Waugh knows that there are no more great journeys and possibly no more great vows and still to trouble to write a novel at all exhibits precisely that fine hardness of mind most characteristic of him

Joan Didion
