Synopsis
Excerpt from Historical Record of the Honourable East India Company's: First Madras European Regiment: Containing an Account of the Establishment of Independent Companies in 1646; Their Formation Into a Regiment in 1748; And Its Subsequent Services to 1842
The operations of the British troops in Indian warfare created little or no interest in Europe until after the battle of Plassey, when, as the foundation of the British power became more securely planted, and began to extend, the achievements of our arms in the East became better known, and the heroic deeds of her sons in this distant land were first proclaimed to Britain, and they began to receive that tribute of pralse and admiration to which they were so justly entitled.
