Synopsis "The Indian Mutiny of 1857"

Newly illustrated throughout with contemporary maps, portraits, photographs and engravings, this is G.B. Malleson's concise and authoritative account of the Indian Mutiny of 1857. This detailed version of the events of 1857-58 is based on the evidence of the time, using the official documents, personal letters and private journals of those who experienced the insurgence first hand. Originally published in 1891, it describes the causes of the rebellion, its main protagonists, the sieges, battles and skirmishes and its aftermath from a Victorian perspective. From the massacre of Cawnpore, the siege of Delhi to the final relief of Lucknow, this book follows the soldiers of the British East India Company from the first sparks of unrest to the final bitter conclusion of the war. Today, many consider the Indian Mutiny and the ruthless treatment of the rebels and the complete humiliation of their leaders by the British, the beginning of the end for the British Raj. It took another 90 years before India won the independence it so desperately wanted.
