Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. In times of great political unrest, a British civil servant stationed in India finds himself caught in the middle of a bloody uprising. The author recounts his harrowing escape from certain death at Meerut in 1857 as part of the Indian Rebellion. The East India Company had made missteps in its governing of the colony, including ethnic tensions and questionable modernization efforts, which led to the Sepoy Mutiny. A first-hand account of rebellion and revenge, this book examines the historical factors that brought about this violent uprising and offers fresh perspectives on a lesser-known period of British colonial history. It also provides valuable insights into the political and social dynamics of India during the 19th century. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
