Besieged in Lucknow - The full account of a famous siege from a man
at the heart of every event.For those who have read anything of the
Residency at Lucknow during the Indian Mutiny the name Gubbins is
as familiar as that of Kavanagh or Lawrence. Gubbins' Post is as
memorable a bastion as Lone Pine was on the Gallipoli Peninsula.
This is the story of Martin Gubbins himself, whose house became
Gubbins' Post and who, among other duties, manned and defended it
throughout the siege. No-one was better qualified than Gubbins to
record the Siege of the Lucknow Residency. Not only was he present
from the rumours of mutiny to the relief, but he was central to the
command structure, most of the time responsible for intelligence
and communications.
