Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a biography of Lieutenant General Sir Gerald Graham. Joining the army in the mid-1800s, he would go on to serve in almost every major conflict of the Victorian era, from the Crimean War in 1854, and the Chinese Opium Wars, to the final bloody engagements of the First Boer War. The author, a descendant of one of Graham's comrades, draws on extensive personal correspondence to lay bare the man behind the medals, revealing his keen intelligence and sensitive nature. Despite being overlooked for promotion for many years, Graham was eventually given command of troops in Egypt during the Mahdist Revolt of 1884�"1885. There he would finally be given the chance to prove his military talents, leading his men to victory at the Battle of Tamai and relieving the siege of Tokar - feats for which he was made a Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath. Graham's story is an insightful look at Britain's Victorian wars, a portrait of one of its most capable military commanders, and a tribute to the courage and character of one extraordinary soldier.
