A detailed, firsthand account of British interests and military actions on the Coromandel coast during the 1780s. Read to understand the aims, challenges, and outcomes of early Anglo-Indian campaigns.

This work presents an unflinching narrative of the southern campaigns, written as an account to high officials and friends in Britain. It blends observations on governance, native institutions, and the practicalities of war, offering context for how military decisions shaped India’s East India Company’s possessions and policies.

Two letters form the core, addressed to the Board of Control and key figures in Fort St. George. The author reports on operations against Hyder Ali’s successors, the logistics of advancing through difficult terrain, and the difficulties of sustaining a distant army. It also includes notes on reforms and the state of local alliances that influenced the peace and war balance.

A grounded narrative of campaigns on the Malabar coast and approaches to Seringapatam.

Insights into supply, logistics, and the fortress operations that supported field efforts.

Discussion of governance, reform proposals, and the role of different Indian polities in the conflict.

Context for broader British strategy in India during the late 18th century.

Ideal for readers of military history, colonial policy, and 18th‑century Anglo‑Indian relations who seek a primary‑style account anchored in field observations.
