Sharpe`s Rifles: Rifleman Harris 1809
(WAABD003)
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."
