Description
This is an authentic account of a group of recruits who joined a crack cavalry regiment in the mid-1840s. They were trained in the manner of the day and then sent to the Punjab where, in completely unsuitable uniforms, they fought and beat India's most martial race, the Sikhs in the Battle of Aliwai.Tags
