Beau Geste -- the Novel

Editors Award Winner
Editor's Award Winner

This quiz has received an Editor's Award for excellent content. Only the most unique and well written quizzes are eligible for this award.


Published in 1924, Beau Geste is considered one of the great adventure stories of the English language: To me, there are memorable characters; deft plotting and action sequences; fascinating details about British aristocratic boyhood, the grueling life in the French Foreign Legion, the unforgiving Sahara; and an overall sense of the British imperial ideal.

This quiz concentrates on the novel, but if you've seen the quite faithful 1939 film version, you'll be adequately clued in to the story. A companion-piece quiz will tackle the movie adaptations.
