註釋

In 'Tiny Carteret', Sapper meticulously intertwines the tale of an unlikely hero with the classic elements of British interwar storytelling. Tiny, whose physical prowess belies his sharp intellect, embarks on an absorbing adventure alongside Ronald Standish in a quest packed with thrilling escapades and patriotic fervor. Sapper's prosaic craftsmanship is evident, as the narrative is deftly painted with vivid descriptions and a subtle vein of humor, paying homage to the robust tradition of English literary character heroes, reminiscent of the likes of P.G. Wodehouse's stoic characters blundering through crises with stiff upper lips. The texture of this story is thickened by Sapper's own military background, instilling an air of authenticity to Tiny's gallant romp – a compelling fusion of action, wit, and subtle social commentary on heroism and duty.nSapper, the pen name for H. C. McNeile, drew from his own experiences as a soldier, having served with distinction in World War I, to inform his writing of hard-hitting heroes and stirring adventures. 'Tiny Carteret' likely reflects Sapper's own values and insights into the era's geopolitical tensions, transferring his professional experiences into the literary realm. This informs the protagonist's unyielding determination and the exploration of themes such as loyalty and perseverance against the backdrop of a society caught between wars.n'Tiny Carteret' is highly recommended for readers embarking on a journey into the heart of early 20th-century British action literature. With its capable hero, tension-filled plot, and masterful narrative echoes of the period, this book invites enthusiasts of historical fiction and adventure seekers alike into a world where valor and a quick wit are the keys to success. It is a tale that champions the spirit of an era, brimming with undiminished relevance and enduring appeal.
