The Indian Mutiny
By Richard Hilton
Published by Hollis & Carter: London 1957

" In this detailed centenary history, Major-General Richard Hilton presents a balanced and authoritative account of the Indian Mutiny of 1857 — one of the most significant and turbulent episodes in British-Indian history. Drawing on contemporary records, military reports, and his own deep familiarity with India, Hilton offers a lucid narrative that examines the causes, course, and aftermath of the rebellion with scholarly precision and fairness to both sides. The volume includes detailed regional maps of Northern India, providing valuable context for the campaigns, sieges, and uprisings that marked the conflict.

Hilton's study stands out for its impartial tone and avoidance of imperial bias, highlighting the courage and tragedy experienced by both British and Indian participants. His long personal connection with India and command experience lend authenticity to his reflections on mutual respect and reconciliation in the century that followed. This first edition will appeal to collectors of British military history, students of colonial India, and readers interested in 19th-century warfare and imperial relations."
