""The Defense of Cawnpore"" is a historical account of the events that took place during the Indian Rebellion of 1857, specifically the defense of the city of Cawnpore by the troops under the orders of Major General Charles A. Windham. The book was written by John Miller Adye, a British Army officer who was present during the siege of Cawnpore. The book describes the siege of Cawnpore in detail, including the initial attack on the city by rebel forces, the subsequent defense by British troops, and the eventual relief of the city by British reinforcements. Adye provides a firsthand account of the battles and skirmishes that took place during the siege, as well as the strategies and tactics employed by both sides. In addition to describing the military aspects of the siege, Adye also provides insight into the political and social factors that led to the Indian Rebellion of 1857. He discusses the grievances of the Indian soldiers who rebelled against British rule, as well as the attitudes and actions of the British officials and military leaders who were involved in the conflict. Overall, ""The Defense of Cawnpore"" is a valuable historical document that provides a detailed and nuanced account of a significant event in colonial Indian history. It offers insights into the military, political, and social aspects of the Indian Rebellion of 1857, and sheds light on the complex relationship between the British and Indian populations during the colonial period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
