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of the Mutiny as experienced within the circle of my extensive official charge, I purpose quoting generally from my unpublished Reports and Diaries and Correspondence of the period, in order that the incidents may be presented in succession to the reader with the greater fidelity and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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Indian Mutiny: And of the Disturbances Which Accompanied It Among the Civil Population Those who may open this book will not, I think, complain that it is wanting in detail or in that element of personal adventure which could not properly be excluded from a History of the Indian Mutiny. But it does not profess to give a minute account of what took place at every station and in every district in India during the struggle. A narrative minute enough, In most of its chapters, to satisfy the most curious reader has already been given to the world by Sir John Kaye and Colonel Malleson; and there is nothing to justify any one in undertaking to write another book on the subject on the same scale as that which they adopted. The history of the Mutiny, like every other history, must indeed be told in detail, if it is to hold the interest of readers: but, while the narrator of recent events is expected to give a full account of all that are interesting in themselves, the writer who appears later in the field ought to reserve his detailed narrative for events of historical importance. There is, I am sure, room for a book which, while giving a detailed narrative of - the Chief campaigns, of the stirring events that took place at the various centres Of revolt, and Of every episode the story of which can permanently interest the general reader, and a more summary account of incidents of minor importance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Kaye's and Malleson's History of the Indian Mutiny of 1857-8, Vol. 4 of 6 The present volume narrates the story of the storming of Dehli, the subsequent clearing of the country in the vicinity of that city, and the march to Agra and Kanhpur. It proceeds then to deal with Sir Colin Campbell's journey from Calcutta to Kanhpur; his relief of the garrison of Lakhnao; and his safe escort of the women and children of that garrison to Kanhpur. It devotes then a chapter to the attack of the Gwaliar contingent on that central point, and to Windham's consequent action; another, to Colin Campbell's reply to their daring aggression. Narrating, then, the movements of the several columns of Walpole and Seaton, and of the main body under Sir Colin, in the North-West; the action of the NipKanhpurl troops under Jang Bahadur; and of the columns under Rowcroft and Franks in the Azamgarh district and in eastern Oudh; it proceeds to describe the four months' defence of the Alambagh by the illustrious Outram;then, the last movements which preceded Sir Colin's attack on Lakhnao; then, the storming of that city. From this point the narrative returns to the Bengal Presidency proper, and describes the outbreaks in eastern Bengal, in eastern Bihar, in Chutia Nagpur, and their repression; deals then with the difficulties caused mainly by the suicidal action of the Government in western Bihar; gives in full detail the splendid action of Lord Mark Kerr the relief of Azamgarh, one of the two instances on record in which a surprised army defeated the surprisers; proceeds then to the campaign of Lugard, Douglas, and their lieutenants, against Kunwar Singh and his brother Amar Singh, in western Bihar; describes the gallantry of Middleton, and the fertility of resource of, and striking success achieved by, Sir Henry Havelock.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Kaye's and Malleson's History of the Indian Mutiny of 1857-8, Vol. 6 of 6 In conclusion, I would with great respect lay the last volume of this work before the public as the concluding words of an attempt to describe, faithfully and without prejudice, the most marvellous episode of modern times. There had been nothing to equal it in the world's history before. I repeat here, what I have said in a previous volume, that no harder task was ever suddenly thrown upon a nation than that cast upon the British in 1857. In achieving it, they literally conquered the impos sible that is, they performed a task which, I believe, no other people in the World could have accomplished. They conquered, because, in the darkest hour, they never despaired because, believing in their own energies, they dared to be great.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Indian Mutiny, Reviewed, Vol. 1: Illustrated From Original Documents It is on the sure ground of official documents that I have mainly relied, but they have been fortified by the contemporary literature, which is both varied and abundant. 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 conversation with many who witnessed the transactions. Military operations, however, extend over so wide a field that no actor can have a personal knowledge of all the circumstances. By putting together fragments of information which I have received from several witnesses, marking where they agree and where they differ, and comparing them with the whole collection of written statements, I have endeavoured to arrive at a complete and correct conception of the combination of scenes which a battle or the storming of a fortress presents. My own conceptions have been corrected by the technical and sagacious criticisms of military experts, and the work of a civilian on the operations of war is therefore offered with less fear.
