The Reverend Hodson describes vividly the story of his brother, Major Hodson known as the captor of the Moghul King of Delhi. it begins with his early life at Cambridge which emphasises the eventual contrast with his army life in India. The occupation of Lahore, and life in Lahore, road-making and surveying, etc, are brought to contemporary life as only source material can achieve. The latter part of the book is concerned with the Delhi campaign and, again it is possible to be carried away by the intrigue and the realism of the text and forget that at the same time it is a valuable source material tool which anyone interested in this period of Indian/Pakistan history would find absorbing and invaluable.
