Reseña del editor:

Colonel G. B. Malleson's definitive history of the mutiny against British rule in India is more than just a narrative of the dreadful events of 1857 and the insanity of colonialism, but also provides now-suppressed insights into race, racial psychology and the true causes of interracial conflict. Using official documents, personal letters and private journals of those involved, Malleson tells the story of the massacre of the Europeans at Cawnpore, the siege of Delhi and the final relief of Lucknow.
