Book Description
London: Ward, Lock & Co, 1941. A nice copy of a British career soldier, with a gift of languages. Very evocative of what it was to be an officer in the Indian Army during the Raj. He took time out for Galipoli in WW One, but then returned to his beloved sport and drill in India, eventually becoming Commander-in-Chief. He certainly did not see India becoming Independent. . First Edition. Cloth. Very Good. Illus. by 15 b/w Plates, 5 Color Maps. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
