Oliver Ellis grows up under the eye of the parish minister, sees his hopes undone by a will and the schemes of the lawyers Harpy, Quirky and Macfarisee, and loves Amy Lee from boyhood. With his prospects gone, he takes up a soldier’s life with the Fusiliers, whose campaigns Grant draws from real regimental history.
