Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Turning Point, in the Indian Mutiny This book aims at throwing a light on a very crucial time in our Empire´s history. It aims at lighting up that part of England´s memory which is concerned with a certain siege which happened more than fifty years ago, lest she forget splendid deeds done by heroic Englishmen in the Indian Mutiny; men who, at out-of-the-way stations, fought against gigantic odds, with only a few troops to support them - fought, and saved their country´s colours. These were the men who held up the lamp of the Ideal high above the heads of their fellow-men. Would there were more of them here to-day in England! Men, who simply could not be discouraged by any amount of failure, by any amount of discouragement. They were aware of the inner meaning of those inspiring words: ´how far High Failure overleaps the bounds of low successes.´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
