  In 1857-8, rebels in northern India recruited tens of thousands of volunteers in a mutiny that threatened to engulf the entire subcontinent. This work explores how the vastly outnumbered British army, with extended lines of supply and reinforcement, could defeat so large a force on its home ground.
