Autobiography of a Private Soldier, by John Pindar (Hardcover)

This vivid memoir recounts the experiences of one of the ordinary soldiers who fought in the imperial wars of the 19th century. Peter Leslie, who served in India, China, and the Middle East, describes the horrors of battle and the everyday life of the British Army with a rare combination of candor and humor. This book is a valuable historical document of the period and a tribute to the unsung heroes of the military.
