The Veteran Storycuts eBook Frederick Forsyth
The Veteran.Constant and perpetual patty criminals, which we In Iceland call Companions of Police, mutilate and kill a poor veteran in the street of London, as a surprise a star advocate volunteers to defend them.
The criminals are acquitted, due to the lawyers learning. The reason is that the veteran fought and served his country in the lawyers regiment and he wanted a Biblical justice, rather than paragraph justice from Old Bailey.
Palio of Siena 1975.
This is a good glimpse of the history of Siena. A former God fearing American soldier visits the city with his wife during the time of the Palio. The meet a German which is expert on the history of Siena.
The German tells them a tear wetting story of a lady saint of the city. It is a real sentimental story, but the reader falls into a shock when at the end of the story.
The conclusion is, if this is a satire on how the Vatican upholds itself.
Whispering wind 1876.
We have seen this side of the author in the “Good Shepard” The native North Americans are spiritual beings and I recommend the reader of the story to read “Chef Seattle’s letter to all the people”
In The Icelandic Saga there is a good narrative of the fighting ferocity of the Native Americans.
This story is so excellent that I declare it true.

The Veteran Storycuts eBook Frederick Forsyth Reviews
The only relevant thing you really need to know about THE VETERAN, especially if you buy it, as I did, thinking it a single story, is that it's a compendium of five shorts. The fifth chapter, "Whispering Wind", is perhaps a novelette as it comprises roughly 40% of the 344-page volume.
Two of the stories were previously published, which suggests that Frederick Forsyth's publisher asked him to scour his odds bin for material to flesh out a profitable new release. Or perhaps the author just needed something to forestall the demands of his publisher made cranky by a delay in the contractual delivery of a feature-length novel. Or maybe Forsyth just needed an infusion of funds to refurbish his home's loo.
All five tales revolve around a veteran of some profession or another "The Veteran" (British Para trooper), "The Art of the Matter" (bit-part actor), "The Miracle" (WWII Wehrmacht medical officer), "The Citizen" (British drug enforcement cop), "Whispering Wind" (19th century U.S. Seventh Cavalry scout).
All stories were above average in their ability to engage and retain my interest even so far as to attract my attention between snaps during yesterday's USC-Notre Dame football contest. (USC 38, Irish 3. Fight on!) All five had a plot twist, and the author's attention to detail gave added value. In particular for those with no prior knowledge of Custer's Last Stand in 1876 in the present state of Montana, Forsyth's summary of the U.S. Army's greatest defeat at the hands of the native tribes provides a very nice introductory overview.
The first four stories take place in more or less the present and, unlike the fifth and last, completely exclude any paranormality. This sudden change in direction may be slightly disconcerting, much like finding an otherworldly Sci-Fi plot rounding out a collection of sagebrush Western shoot-'em-ups.
THE VETERAN is the perfect accompaniment for that flight home for the holidays or the wait through the wash and spin cycles at the launderette.
I enjoy all Freddy Forsyth books, and especially enjoyed two of the first short stories of book called "The Veteran" The Veteran and Whispering Wind, the first and last short stories, were my favorites…though all were good.
All the stories have a surprise (to me) ending.
The Veteran is a story of moral justice triumphing the letter of the law. The ending is the surprise and will make you smile when justice is served in ways not expected.
Whispering Wind is unlike any Forsyth book or short story. It’s a fantasy and nothing like it Forsyth has ever written. You’ll also learn the wisdom and smarts required to survive year-round in the Montana-Wyoming area.
