Descrizione

About The Book: In the book "Recollections of Thirty-Nine Years in the Army," a comprehensive portrayal of various military campaigns and experiences is presented. These include the Battle of Maharajpore in Gwalior (1843), service on the Gold Coast of Africa (1847-48), participation in the Indian Mutiny (1857-58), engagement in the Expedition to China (1860-61), and involvement in the Siege of Paris (1870-71). The narrative commences in 1841 with the occupation of Cabul by British and Indian troops, set against a backdrop of political turmoil in Afghanistan. The book vividly depicts the demanding conditions and military operations of that period, with a particular emphasis on the recruitment and dispatch of troops from England to India. Additionally, it delves into the care of military invalids at the General Hospital at Fort Pitt and provides insights into the terms of enlistment for soldiers serving in India during that historical period.
