Ten years in India - a book review

The autobiography of soldiers often make a very interesting reading. But 'Ten years in India and three years in Africa' was slightly short of expectations. It is mainly because the author WJD Gould had only a half baked knowledge of our country. He was in India in the middle of the nineteenth century. Sometimes it appears that the writer is hiding something from the readers. Usually the soldiers go on a rampage and indulge in looting after the fall of their enemy. This aspect is not disclosed at all. Perhaps it is to show the British army in perfect light. Still the book is worth reading.
