A shot rang out. The Arabs surged forward under a savage fusillade of heavy fire. Nearer and nearer they
came, shouting with hate and blood-lust.Geste rushed up and down his side of the roof, pausing only long enough to load
his rifle and fire into the shrieking mob below, hoping to trick the Arabs into believing the fort was heavily manned. Load,
aim, and fire, ignoring the cries and curses of the wounded, the dead sprawled out in their own blood. Of all those
hard-bitten veterans who had yelled their defiance at the first Arab onslaught, who had shouted with joy at the order of
"Aux Armes!", only ten remained-ten legionnaires against a thousand Arabs.

Beau Geste is the world-famous novel of suspense and adventure, love and glory, courage and treachery. It is
the thrilling story of three men who braved the hellish brutality and ruthless savagery of the French Foreign Legion to
protect the honor of a woman they loved more than their lives.
