Stories Of The Mutiny

This is a collection of narratives of some of the most famous episodes in the Mutiny of 1857. A few of the pieces ? Trevelyan?s description of the siege and massacre of Cawnpore for instance ? take rank with the finest examples of historical narrative in English. The major portion of the book is devoted to the description of the revolt in the three main centres: Delhi, Lucknow and Cawnpore.
