Description

About The Book: "Memorials of Service in India" chronicles a British officer's experiences and efforts during his time in India. Beginning with his early years of service and assignments in various regions, the book highlights significant events such as the Goomsur War, encounters with the Khonds tribe, and efforts to abolish human sacrifice and female infanticide. Chapters detail visits to the hills, management of tribal affairs, and negotiations with local rulers. The narrative concludes with reflections on the officer's return to Great Britain, subsequent return to India, and involvement in events during the Mutiny of 1857.
