Book review - Reminiscences of the Great Mutiny 1857-59 - by William Forbes-Mitchell

In this ebook the author who is an English soldier gives an eye witness account of the 1857 mutiny that took place in Inda. In such stories the hero of one nation often gets painted as a villain by the opponents. The Satti Chowra Ghat massacre of Kanpur shows the character of the Indian soldiers along with that of Nana Sahib in a very poor light. Anyhow the contents of the book are very interesting and enhance our knowledge regarding the way the pitched battles were fought in the earlier times. This ebook can be downloaded free of cost from the internet.
