A fascinating look into a tumultuous interlude in British history and the life of Bonnie Prince Charlie

This brilliantly entertaining novel is a fictionalization of the true story of Charles II (May 29, 1630 – February 6, 1685), charting his daring flight to France after the Battle of Worcester, where Cromwell and his Protestant forces defeated the Catholic king. For six weeks, Charles' life was in danger as he hid in the English countryside, disguised as a servant, unable to find a way across heavily guarded borders. His loyal courtiers were appalled by the ease and glee with which he adopted his new humble identity, insisting on chatting and even drinking with ostlers and houseboys. Two young women were instrumental in his eventual escape and one of them became a lifelong friend of the exiled king.

"If that isn't Chinese Brady I'll eat my boots!" Major Bill Abel and Colonel Rog Wharton recognized the new pilot immediately. His graying hair might be dyed black, but these two old war horses would never forget the man who had saved their lives in Shanghai during the 1900 Boxer rebellion. For Chinese Brady, war and excitement were like bread and butter. He was known far and wide as a fierce warrior, a soldier of the world. And after almost twenty years of scrapping in every war and revolution, in every corner of the globe, Brady was going to finally fight under his own flag, as a Captain in the WWI American air force. But rank didn't matter to him. After all, he had been a Prime Minister in Abyssinia, a General in China, a Major in Honduras, a Chief of Staff in Mexico, and a buck private in Guatemala. What did matter was that he could now bring his savage skills to bear against Germany, to save Europe from the Kaiser and all his evil minions! The tales of Chinese Brady were written by C. M. Miller. They appeared in Popular Publications' Battle Birds and Dare-Devil Aces from 1933 through 1940, thirteen of them in all. And Age of Aces is bringing them to you, collected for the first time in one volume..
