In this sequel to SERGEANT LAMB OF THE NINTH, Lamb, along with 3000 others of the Burgoyne's army, is in a prison camp near Boston, awaiting repatriation. But the American Congress refuses to ratify the agreement and Lamb plans an escape.

He manages to make his way through General Washington's lines and rejoins Cornwallis in the Carolinas, fighting with him until Yorktown. Again he makes a remarkable escape to rejoin the British in New York, accompanied by eight Fusiliers.

PROCEED SERGEANT LAMB is based on the correspondence of a remarkable man at arms who fought for "King and Country" in our war for independence.
