Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of Indian Officers, Vol. 1 of 2: Illustrative of the History of the Civil and Military Service of India I think that something should be said regarding the circumstances, which have resulted in the publication of this book. Two or three years ago, I was invited by the editor and by the proprietor of Good Words to write a series of biographical papers illustrative of the careers of some of our most distinguished "Indian Heroes." As the materials, in most instances, were not to be obtained from printed books or papers, to perform this task in a satisfactory manner - that is, to write month after month, throughout the year, a memoir of some soldier or statesman distinguished in Indian history - would have been impossible to one, the greater part of whoso time was devoted to other duties, if it had not chanced that for many years I had been gathering, from different original sources, information relating both to the public sendees and the private lives of many of those whose careers it was desired that I should illustrate. I had many large manuscript volumes, the growth of past years of historical research, full of personal correspondence and biographical notes, and I had extensive collections of original papers, equally serviceable, which had not been transcribed.

Excerpt: ... recommended was not more politic, it was at all events more generous, and indeed more just, than the opposite course. But the Governor-General was not a man to brook opposition of any kind, and for a while he withdrew his smiles from his favourite lieutenant. But all this soon passed away. Lord Wellesley wrote him a long and very friendly letter, assuring him of his unbroken confidence--telling him that he was at full liberty to return to Mysore, to join the Government party in the Upper Provinces, to prepare for another mission to Persia, or to go home to recruit his health, as he might think best. 'You may be assured, ' wrote Lord Wellesley, ' that, although these discussions have given me great pain, they have not in any degree impaired my friendship and regard for you/or my general confidence and esteem. You cannot suppose that such transactions did not irritate me considerably at the unseasonable moment of their pressure. But you have already received from me suggestions of the same nature with those expressed in this letter, and you are aware of my aversion to every description of attack upon my judgment, excepting fair, distinct, direct argument. Reflecting on these observations, I entertain a confident expectation that you will always pursue that course of proceeding, in the discharge of the. duties of friendship towards me, which you now know to be most congenial to my character and temper; and I am satisfied that you will continue to possess the high place in my esteem and attachment to which you are so justly entitled by every consideration of gratitude and respect. I am extremely grieved to learn that your health has been so deeply affected. I trust, however, that the sea air and repose will entirely restore you. I leave you..

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of Indian Officers, Vol. 2 of 2: Illustrative of the History of the Civil and Military Service of India House at Montrose, illuminated with lamps from top to bottom. There must have been something in all this greatly to inspire and encourage the young Scotch subaltern, for Malcolm him self had risen from the same small beginning, and now his 3 name was in every man's'mouth, and all were delighting to do him honour. What might not any young scot, with the right stuff in him, do in India? In all directions there was encouragement and assurances not likely to be thrown away upon a youth of young Burnes' s lively imagination. A M011 trose man had sent him out to India; an Eadinburgh man was now at the head of the Government of Bombay; a Glasgow man was Governor of the Madras Presidency, and now the son of an Eskdale farmer was receiving the plaudits of all classes of his countrymen, and returning for a while to his native land, a successful soldier and a successful statesman, amidst a whirl of popularity that might have fully Satisfied the desires of the most ambitious hero 111 the world. But to young Alexander Burnes the encouragements 'of the future were not greater, than the consolations of the present. I like the country amazingly, he ete to Montrose, and as yet am not at all desirous of a return to my own land. Here I have everything to be wished for - plenty of time to myself, a gentlemanly commanding officer, and several very pleasant brother-officers. But he added, for thoughts of home were still pulling at his heart, how dearly should I like to see little Charley or Cecilia trudging into my canvas abode - but, ah! That is far beyond probability. However, I may yet see Charley'in India, for he seems a boy made for it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt: ...was the friend to whom the soul of D'Arey Todd clave with the greatest fondness. It was his duty to contract engagements of friendship with Shah. Kamran, offensive and defensive, and, with the aid of Sanders and Abbott, to strengthen the defences of the place at the expense of the British Government. For the first few months everything appeared to proceed prosperously, and Todd had no reason to complain of the manner in which the mission was'received either by the King or the Wuzeer. He had become personally acquainted with both during the siege, and had written to his brother, saying: 'I was much pleased with what I saw of the Afghans during my visit to the town. The Wuzeer, Yar Mahomed Khan, who is the de facto governor, is a shrewd, intelligent man, cruel and rapacious, it is said, as a governor, but possessing an abundance of that cool courage which is the first requisite in a commandant of a besieged fortress. Kamran is said to have stupified his intellect by the habitual use of intoxicating drugs, but he was certainly wide awake during my conference with him, and he struck me as being, a remarkably sharp old fellow--he must now be upwards of seventy; however, he has got a very bad character, and. perhaps deserves it.' And now, on his second visit to Herat, he wrote to the same correspondent in a cheerful, though not in an over-confident strain: 'Herat, October 10, 1839. J wrote to you from Caudahar, I think, that I was about to proceed as Envoy from, the Governor-General Lieutenant (now Major-General) C. F. North and AssistantSurgeon Login, afterwards Sir John Login, also formed part of the mission. to Herat I received my present appointment under very flattering circumstances, such indeed as to make a youth (don't laugh; you can't...

Book excerpt: This is an astonishing true tale of espionage, journeys in disguise, secret messages, double agents, assassinations and sexual intrigue. Alexander Burnes was one of the most accomplished spies Britain ever produced and the main antagonist of the Great Game as Britain strove with Russia for control of Central Asia and the routes to the Raj. There are many lessons for the present day in this tale of the folly of invading Afghanistan and Anglo-Russian tensions in the Caucasus. Murray's meticulous study has unearthed original manuscripts from Montrose to Mumbai to put together a detailed study of how British secret agents operated in India. The story of Burnes' life has a cast of extraordinary figures, including Queen Victoria, King William IV, Earl Grey, Benjamin Disraeli, Lola Montez, John Stuart Mill and Karl Marx. Among the unexpected discoveries are that Alexander and his brother James invented the myths about the Knights Templars and Scottish Freemasons which are the foundation of the Da Vinci Code; and that the most famous nineteenth-century scholar of Afghanistan was a double agent for Russia.
