Books

Here are a few books from my growing reference library for the Mutiny:

The British Troops in the Indian Mutiny, 1857-59
Michael Barthorp









Battles of the Indian Mutiny
Michael Edwardes










British in India 1825-1859
Organisation, warfare, dress and weapons
John French









The Great Mutiny: India 1857
Christopher Hibbert










The Indian Mutiny
Christopher Wilkinson-Latham










Lahore to Lucknow
The Indian Mutiny Journal of Arthur Moffat Lang
David Bloomfield (editor)









The Indian Mutiny: 1857
Saul David












Indian Mutiny & Beyond: The Letters of Robert Shebbeare VC
Edited by Arthur Littlewood












I have always found relevant historical fiction and good way to keep me focussed on a project as it's usually a little less dry than some of the reference material (recognising it may stretch the reality to breaking point - and is some cases beyond!):



The Siege Of Krishnapur
J.G. Farrell











Flashman in the Great Game
George MacDonald Fraser










Dust and Steel
Patrick Mercer
