Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers an all-encompassing history of British military leadership in India from the mid-18th century onwards. Officers from all ranks, including a wide variety of infantry, cavalry, engineers, and even the medical corps, are represented as the author endeavors to capture the true nature of military command in this troubled region. With a heavy emphasis on the relationship between the British and their Indian subjects, the book brings to light the delicate balancing act that was necessary to exert control over such a large and culturally distinct population while conducting complex military operations. At the heart of the narrative is the idea of a distinct 'British style' of military leadership and the ways in which this style both developed and transformed over time. The book draws out several key themes which shaped and were shaped by British military leaders, including an unshaking belief in their racial and cultural superiority, an adherence to strict discipline and standards of conduct, and a strong emphasis on leadership by example. An important addition to the scholarship on British imperialism, military history, and leadership, this book provides a fresh and stimulating perspective on this fascinating period.
