Description:

THE SCHOLAR OF THE 95TH

Third in our officially licensed SHARPE�S RIFLES range is that bookish rake Rifleman Harris.

Harris is a bit of a riddle in the world of Sharpe. In the first novels he was described as a small clever-looking man who was a sheep shearer and another rifleman, Isaiah Tongue, was the bookish one. But once Jason Salkey took on the role in the television version of Sharpe�s Rifles, Bernard Cornwell started writing the character to more closely match Salkey�s portrayal.

Sharpe�s introduction to Harris in the first show establishes Harris�s persona straightaway:

Harris: "Harris. From Wheatley in Oxfordshire."

Sharpe: "And previously?"

Harris: "A courtier for my lord Bacchus and an unremitting debtor."

Sharpe: "You�re a rake and a wastrel Harris. Is there anything you can do?"

Harris: "I can read sir." - Sharpe�s Rifles television script

This hard plastic set includes one 54mm display piece with a scenic base and a 28mm version that can be built in two ways with a textured 25mm round base. The 54mm model depicts Harris taking a moment with one of his beloved books. The 28mm model depicts Harris advancing with two arm and head options.
