"Under Two Flags" is a widely acclaimed, especially among military men, Foreign Legion romance which has consistently enthralled readers and cinema audiences. It is regarded as author Ouida's best-known and most imitated work. The Hon. Bertie Cecil would rather spend his days racing his horses. But now for all involved, he must get away from the English set. In order to protect his brother's secret, he enlists in the second regiment of the Chasseurs d'Afrique in Algeria, where he faces years of danger and hardship in the Algerian wilderness. But he soon finds relief in the form of two women who love him: the camp-follower Cigarette and the Princess Venetia.
