Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Indian Mutiny The story of the great Indian Mutiny has often been told in whole or in part. In this book, while historical outlines are carefully pre served, it is attempted to throw into relief the more picturesque episodes, and to bring out illustrative incidents of personal adventure likely to attract young readers. With such a theme, if any reader will only suffer some needful gravity in the introduction, he may be promised a nar rative of heroism and romance which the dullest.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Red Year: A Story of the Indian Mutiny One evening in the month of April, a slim, straight backed girl stood in the veranda of a bungalow at Meerut. Her slender figure, garbed in white muslin, was framed in a creeper-covered arch. The fierce ardor of an Indian spring had already kissed into life a profusion of red flowers amid the mass of greenery, and, if Winifred Mayne had sought an effective setting for her own fair picture, she could not have found one better fitted to its purpose.

This book was released on 2017-11 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Missing Chapter of the Indian Mutiny In proceeding now to recount the events of the troubled period of the Mutiny as experienced within the circle of my extensive official charge, I purpose quoting generally from my unpublished Reports and Diaries and Correspondence of the period, in order that the incidents may be presented in succession to the reader with the greater fidelity and graphic force as life-photographs taken at the time. The historic land-marks left by the events about to be related in this missing chapter of the Indian Mutiny, may serve to complete the history of its suppression by such a numerically inferior and scattered force of the English race, as seemed, at the time, almost to preclude hope. In depositing that record of achievement, then, upon the shelves of the National archives, the people of England would not, I believe, willingly see it curtailed by one line of recorded honest effort.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Indian Mutiny: And of the Disturbances Which Accompanied It Among the Civil Population About two years ago Messrs. Macmillan agreed, at my request, to take over the publication of this history; and it appeared to me that the time had come for thoroughly revising the whole book. In June, 1896, before the revision had proceeded far, the fourth edition was exhausted: but, although it was certain that a considerable time must elapse before the work could be finished, the publishers thought that it would be unwise to print any more copies from the old plates; and indeed it would have been hardly fair to offer intending purchasers a reprint while I was trying to make the book better worth buying. The structure of the work remains unchanged; and only such alterations have been made as appeared necessary. Wherever I could detect an inaccuracy, I have corrected it: wherever the narrative of military operations was deficient in lucidity, I have tried to amend it. I have struck out a few superfluous sentences, have added what, to my apprehension, was wanting, and have modified judgements which, on reconsideration, appeared misleading or unfair. Among the more important alterations and additions are those which relate to the Afghan war, the battle of Sacheta and the events which led up to it, the battle of Chinhat, the defence of the Lucknow Residency, Havelock's campaign, Lord Canning's Oudh proclamation and the vexed question of Sir Colin Campbell's responsibility for the protraction of the war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Face of the Waters: A Tale of the Mutiny A word of explanation is needed for this book, which, in attempting to be at once a story and a history, proba bly fails in either aim. That, however, is for the reader to say. As the writer, I have only to point out where my history ends, my story begins, and clear the way for criticism. Briefly, then, I have not allowed fiction to interfere with fact in the slightest degree. The reader may rest assured that every incident bearing in the remotest degree on the Indian Mutiny, or on the part which real men took in it, is scrupulously exact, even to the date, the hour, the scene, the very weather. Nor have I allowed the actual actors in the great tragedy to say a word regarding it which is not to be found in the accounts of eye-witnesses, or in their own writings.

A large number of private letters and diaries have been placed at my disposal, and it has been my anxious care to draw from them useful material by separating facts and just inferences from matters and opinions honestly given as testified by the senses of the writer, but in truth founded on the current statements and warped feelings of the hour. Besides the printed matter and the manuscript documents, I have had the advantage of conversa tion with many who witnessed the transactions.
