OverviewFour days after war was declared, an Indian corps of two infantry divisions and a cavalry brigade was ordered to embark for the Western Front. Clad in in tropical uniforms, those men endured one of the bitterest winters on record and fought in every major battle of the next two years. In a country they had never seen, against an enemy of whom they knew little and in a cause that was not their own, they served for the honour of their country and their regiments. Sepoys in the Trenches draws upon a mass of unpublished sources and extensive interviews by the author in India and Nepal. 25 b/w illustrations and maps Full Product DetailsAuthor: Major Gordon CorriganPublisher: The History Press Ltd Imprint: The History Press Ltd Dimensions: Width: 15.60cm , Height: 2.30cm , Length: 23.40cm Weight: 0.499kg ISBN: 9780750961615ISBN 10: 0750961619 Pages: 288 Publication Date: 02 February 2015 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print  This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
