More waiting--Attack in force by Thibetans--Action of Gnatong--Defeat and rout of Thibetan forces--Further inaction--Profusion of wild flowers--Life in the monsoon--Reinforcements ordered up. We had strong hopes that at the beginning of May we should be allowed to "go for " the Thibetans, and have no more nonsense about the matter, as the Lamas refused to come to terms, and here we were, within a few miles of one another, playing at the school boy game of "you hit me first, and then I'll give you beans." No such luck, however. The powers that were, ruled that we were on no account to unnecessarily attack the enemy who has invaded our country, and who continues to return impertinent messages to our overtures for an understanding. Morever, we are forbidden to aggravate them unduly by approaching within three miles of our own frontier line on the Jelapla Pass, so that the foe, who has for eighteen months occupied our country, and who has retired with all speed before our small column, may now flourish his antiquated weapons and defy us to his heart's content on the top of the Jelapla Pass, secure in the edict issued by the Government of India that he is not on any account to be thwarted. We have nothing to do, therefore, but possess our souls in patience and wait on the course of events, trusting for some climax to occur to put an end to the weary game of sitting still and doing nothing. Rumours came at the beginning of May that all British troops were to return to the plains, for which we were not sorry, as the prospect of further fighting seemed remote. These rumours never came to anything, however, so we stood fast and spent our time in improving the camp, in making it stronger by building a stockade of logs properly...

Book Synopsis General Gatacre by : Beatrix Gatacre
Download or read book General Gatacre written by Beatrix Gatacre and published by Husband Press. This book was released on 2008-05 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GENERAL GATACRE- THE STORY OF THE LIFE AND SERVICES OF SIR WILLIAM FORBES GATACRE, K.C.B., D.S.0, by BEATRIX GATACRE. Originally published in 1910. THE main object in laying this book before the public is to provide an authentic and accurate narrative of Sir William Gatacres work in South Africa. The first half of this story has been entirely dependent on the recollections of others, and in the latter half, the authors own personal knowledge of Gatacre and his affairs has enabled the author to seek the information from numerous sources. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Book Synopsis Britain's Imperial Administrators, 1858-1966 by : A. Kirk-Greene
Download or read book Britain's Imperial Administrators, 1858-1966 written by A. Kirk-Greene and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2000-02-24 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Britain's famous overseas civil services - the Colonial Administrative Service, the Indian Civil Service and the Sudan Political Service - no longer exist as a major and sought-after career for Britain's graduates. In this detailed study the history of each service is presented within the framework of the need to administer an expanding empire. Close attention is paid to the methods of recruitment and training and to the socio-educational background of the overseas administrators as well as to the nature of their work. The prestigious incumbents of Government House are revealingly examined. The impact of decolonisation on overseas officials and the kinds of 'second careers' which they took up are documented. This authoritative narrative history is enlivened by recourse to Service lore and anecdotes.

Download or read book Civilization written by Niall Ferguson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of The Ascent of Money and The Square and the Tower “A dazzling history of Western ideas.” —The Economist “Mr. Ferguson tells his story with characteristic verve and an eye for the felicitous phrase.” —Wall Street Journal “[W]ritten with vitality and verve . . . a tour de force.” —Boston Globe Western civilization’s rise to global dominance is the single most important historical phenomenon of the past five centuries. How did the West overtake its Eastern rivals? And has the zenith of Western power now passed? Acclaimed historian Niall Ferguson argues that beginning in the fifteenth century, the West developed six powerful new concepts, or “killer applications”—competition, science, the rule of law, modern medicine, consumerism, and the work ethic—that the Rest lacked, allowing it to surge past all other competitors. Yet now, Ferguson shows how the Rest have downloaded the killer apps the West once monopolized, while the West has literally lost faith in itself. Chronicling the rise and fall of empires alongside clashes (and fusions) of civilizations, Civilization: The West and the Rest recasts world history with force and wit. Boldly argued and teeming with memorable characters, this is Ferguson at his very best.
