He is remembered best for Beau Geste, a much-filmed book of 1924, involving the French Foreign Legion in North Africa.

I highly recommend the Collected Works of P. C. Wren to readers who appreciate well-researched historical fiction with rich character development and a strong sense of adventure. Wren's works offer a unique perspective on the human experience in the harsh environment of colonial military campaigns, making them a true classic in the genre.
