Book Revival  The Challenge of the North West Frontier  1937

Download or read book Revival The Challenge of the North West Frontier 1937 written by C.F. Andrews and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-20 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1937, this book grew out of the author's belief that there needed to be a "drastic revision" of British policy on the North-West Frontier of India (now Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in Pakistan) in order to achieve a lasting peace. The author examined the causes of continued hostility and non-military methods that might prevent further outbreaks of war – reducing or removing British troops and leaving the settlement of disputes to Indians. He traces the changing attitudes of Indians towards British rule and the increasing popularity of calls for independence while also detailing the wider Indian context. This book will be of interest to students of Indian and colonial history.

Book Afghan Wars and the North West Frontier  1839 1947

Download or read book Afghan Wars and the North West Frontier 1839 1947 written by Michael Barthorp and published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson. This book was released on 2002 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the 1830s to Indian independence in 1947, British soldiers fought constant wars with the most implacable guerrilla-fighters in history. The Afghan mountain tribes were fiercely independent. For generations they had plundered the north Indian plain, until the British took charge and alternated between paying them subsidies (bribes to cease their raiding) and launching punitive military expeditions to teach them manners. It was a strange war fought to its own rules. Neither side took prisoners. Yet a grudging respect for the enemy and a concern to stick by unwritten codes of conduct governed this 100-year war. Immortalized by Kipling, the British Army in India fought along the frontier until the withdrawal from the sub-continent in 1947. Michael Barthorp tells the story in a vivid style.

Book The Army in India and the Development of Frontier Warfare  1849 1947

Download or read book The Army in India and the Development of Frontier Warfare 1849 1947 written by T. Moreman and published by Springer. This book was released on 1998-08-10 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive study is the first scholarly account explaining how the British and Indian armies adapted to the peculiar demands of fighting an irregular tribal opponent in the mountainous no-man's-land between India and Afghanistan. It does so by discussing how a tactical doctrine of frontier fighting was developed and 'passed on' to succeeding generations of soldiers. As this book conclusively demonstrates this form of colonial warfare always exerted a powerful influence on the organisation, equipment, training and ethos of the Army in India.
