On April 24th, 1855, Colonel Carmichael Smyth held a parade of the
ninety skirmishers of the 3rd Light Cavalry of the Bengal Army at
Meerut, some 30 miles from Delhi. The disastrous events that
followed sparked an almost wholesale mutiny of the Honourable East
India Company's Bengal Native Army. Had the ensuing uprising
succeeded, it would have threatened the validity of the entire
British Empire. As it was, the Mutiny witnessed several tragic and
bloody events, from the original incident in Meerut to the
horrifying siege of Cawnpore. Christopher Wilikinson-Latham details
the history of the conflict, from its beginnings to ultimate
resolution.
