  The Prize-Winning Comic Novel The Old Limey

  “The Old Limey is John Wayne in The Searchers—with a comic twist—and if the Duke were alive today, I’m sure he’d pick up the option.”

  —Taki

  “An intoxicatingly funny adventure, The Old Limey is Bulldog Drummond meets Baywatch—an inspired comic creation.”

  —Auberon Waugh

  “. . . H. W. Crocker III provides a witty novel supported by acute censure of the modern world...all wrapped in a hilarious page-turning package.”

  —Wall Street Journal

  “Until I read The Old Limey, I had no idea that sex, drugs, booze, and elderly British generals could be such fun.”

  —Christopher Buckley

  H. W. CROCKER III’s The Old Limey is a novel of comic chaos and literary brilliance. Brigadier General Nigel Haversham, a debonair if slightly geriatric James Bond, is on a mission to find his missing goddaughter in a place fraught with danger and peril—Los Angeles.

  Along the way, Nigel meets up with two “beach babes” and tangles with a Jamaican drug gang as he mounts a brilliant campaign to restore the English way of life, honour, and Victorian values to the wildest of lands—Southern California. Outrageous and amusing in turn, Nigel’s mad and hilarious search and rescue operation keeps the reader both tense with excitement and convulsed with laughter.
