Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Diary of a March Through Sinde and Affghanistan, With the Troops Under the Command of General Sir William Nott, K. C. B., &C., And Sermons Delivered on Various Occasions During the Campaign of 1842
The sermons have been added, as conveying the re?ections suggested by the most memo rable incidents of the campaign more con veniently than could always be done in the progress of the narrative, though it is hoped that nothing has been said, under circum stances of so much hurry and excitement, in consistent with their tenor and object.
It will be soothing to the feelings of those whose friends were numbered among the vic tims of the Affghanistan war, to know that not only was such honour paid their remains as the circumstances allowed, but that a church is in progress of erection at Golabab, near Bombay, as the most christian and appropriate mode at once of commemorating the dead, and testifying the gratitude of the living.
