Mutiny at the Margins: New Perspectives on the Indian Uprising of 1857 cover

The Mutiny at the Margins series takes a fresh look at the Revolt of 1857 from a variety of original and unusual perspectives, focusing in particular on neglected socially marginal groups and geographic areas which have hitherto tended to be unrepresented in studies of this cataclysmic event in British imperial and Indian historiography.

Military Aspects of the Indian Uprising (Volume 4) deals with how battles were won and lost and how the army re-organised after the revolt. It also touches on the thorny issue of how to define the events of 1857-as a rebellion, a national uprising or a small war of the kind experienced in many colonial states.

Essays assembled in [this volume] are fairly conventional, both in terms of issues they address and the sources on which they are based...they are all valuable contributions to the historiography of the revolt of 1857.
