Etat : New. 2009 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1881). SB. 8pp Published Price £4.50 Originally privately published, this brief narrative tells of the part played in the Battle of Majuba Hill - a notable British defeat in the first Boer War - by the young Lieutenant Ian Hamilton, who later found fame - though not, alas, glory - as the hapless commander of the disastrous Dardanelles expedition. At Majuba, Hamilton, serving with the Gordon Highlanders, fought heroically (he was recommended for a VC but was considered too young); was badly wounded (his left hand was disabled for life); and captured. A cultivated and literary man, his memoir is of value not only to students of the Boer Wars, but also as a well-written account of action by a gifted and brave young officer.…

Etat : New. vi+62 pp 2018 N&MP Reprint of Original Edition This interesting treatise was written in light of the European breech-loading rapid fire battles of 1870, when soldiers in the pell-mell of battle became too confused to think. The aim of this publication is to give the Non-commissioned Officer and Privates the habit of instinctive obedience to the word of command in the heat of battle, and as a matter of last resource to "fight on by himself".…

Etat : New. 2009 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1837). SB in two volumes xxii + 428 and xi + 352 pp. Maps and Plans & PlatesPublished Price £29.95 The author of this epic of early exploration, Capt. James Alexander, was the soldier-explorer who led an 1836 expedition, sponsored by the Government and the Royal Geographical Society, into the interior of South West Africa (today's Namibia). Travelling by ox-wagons, his route lay north from Cape Town, across the Orange River into the interior and, running dangerously short of water, out at Walfisch Bay - a 4,000-mile trek through unexplored desert wilderness. His book is a compendium of early exploration, including observations of flora and fauna, and the native peoples in the area they travelled through. He also amassed a large collection of zoological and scientific specimens.…

Etat : New. Softback 374 pagesPublished Price £14.50 The names of Havelock and Outram will forever be associated with the relief of the epic siege of Lucknow in the Indian Mutiny. But this book is a graphic account of an earlier episode in the two Generals' military careers, when they commanded a punitive expedition into Persia and modern Iraq in 1856, the year before they achieved immortality at Lucknow. Hardly had their successful operations in Persia concluded, than news reached Persia of the mutiny which called Havelock and Outram to India. Written by Captain G.H Hunt, a junior officer who took part in the campaign (and who died of cholera while the book was going to press) the book is edited by the military historian Goerge Townsend who had added an interesting and informative outline of Persian history for those unfamiliar with the ancient roots of this key country and empire. With Iran a key player in the equally troubled region today, this book will be of keen interest to students of Middle Eastern history, not least for an account of the author's visit to Baghdad. Illustrated by engravings of Persian scenes, this book is a rare account of an overlooked Imperial episode.…
