Just before his regiment sails off to war in the Sudan, British officer Harry Feversham quits the military. He is immediately given four white feathers as symbols of cowardice, one by each of his three best friends and one by his fiancée.

To disprove this grave dishonor, Harry dons an Arabian disguise and leaves for the Sudan, where he anonymously comes to the aid of his three friends, saving each of their lives. Having proven his bravery, Harry returns to England, hoping to regain the love and respect of his fiancée.

This suspenseful tale movingly depicts a distinctive code of honor that was deeply valued and strongly promoted by the British during the height of their imperial power.

This is the first time I’ve ever heard the full story of the Four Feathers - despite having seen many of the films versions - all of which fail to capture the full poignancy of the narrative. I heartily recommend it.

Superb! I enjoyed so much

a book that takes you back to a bygone era of chivalry and friendship and honour. after watching the film years ago I decided I needed to read the book and was not disappointed. take the opportunity and have a good read.

Just voice was monotone and could have done with being more animated for us listeners

Story

Quite a good turn of the century tale of romance and adventure.
The plot, although now probably familiar, is nonetheless intriguing and the characterisation strong.
The deduction of stars reflects the glorification and justification of colonialism in the text. In fairness, it can also be argued that Harry F is actually the voice of anti colonialism in the story.
If classic literature is your cup of tea, it's well worth a listen
