Published to mark the 150th anniversary of the Indian Mutiny, this is an epic story that recreates the shocking events of the summer of 1857, when thousands of formerly obedient and disciplined Indian soldiers turned on their officers, slaughtering men, women and children in a merciless bloodbath. The tiny garrison at Lucknow held out against all odds; the one at Cawnpore surrendered, only to be massacred.
