Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Personal Adventures and Experiences of a Magistrate: During the Rise, Progress and Suppression of the Indian Mutiny After the suppression of the Indian Mutiny, I commenced to write an account of my adventures - illness and other causes delayed me ; by the time my narrative was completed, the then interest of the public in the subject was exhausted. Years have since passed, and an interest of another kind has arisen. The events of that time have become history, and to that history my story may prove a contribution, for I saw much that has not been recorded. I have therefore resolved to publish my narrative, which without further preface I commence. In the beginning of the year 1857 I was magistrate of Muttra, a large city in Upper India. It is situated 011 the banks of the river Jumna, thirty-four miles from Agra, and on the high road, which runs from thence to Delhi. I had held the appointment about four years, and been married rather longer; we had with us two children, a little girl and a baby. The position of magistrate, though much reduced from what it had been, was still a very fine one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
