Beskrivelse

'The author-a staff officer-who was an eyewitness to most of the major events of the First Anglo-Burmese War, gives us an incisive overview of the whole war. This provides the reader with a unique insight into the actions of the various troops during the course of the campaign. However it is the author's descriptions of pitched battles against a richly caparisoned foe-including everything from umbrella bearing generals and war elephants to 'invincibles' and Amazons-that bring this exotic and spectacular conflict vividly to life. Re-living this war from just one step away, whether witnessing fighting in jungle stockades or experiencing river actions against Burmese war boats, will remain with and intrigue all who are interested in the British in the East.'-Print ed.
