War of No Pity - Christopher Herbert - Bog

- The Indian Mutiny and Victorian Trauma

Bag om War of No Pity

Although by twentieth-century standards the number of victims was small, the Victorian public saw 'the Indian Mutiny' of 1857-59 as an epochal event. This book seeks to discover why. It offers a view of this episode - and of Victorian imperialist culture more generally - at odds with the standard formulations of postcolonial scholarship.
