Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life of the Right Hon. Warren Hastings, Vol. 3: First Governor-General of Bengal, Compiled From Original Papers While these things were going on elsewhere, the important business of the war, including the immediate defence of the Carnatic, and the conduct of a variety of subsidiary operations, was not neglected. Of the mission of Sir Eyre Coote to assume the command of the army at Madras, as well as of the march of a large detachment of troops overland from Bengal, notice has elsewhere been taken. Sir Eyre found, on reaching the scene of action, that everything was there in confusion. The Sepoys, dispirited by recent reverses, could scarcely be brought to look the enemy in the face. The Europeans, few in number, were dispersed and broken up into petty garrisons. There was neither unity of purpose, nor vigour of design, among those whose business it was to direct in the field.
