Cloth. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Rawlinson in India. Lightened spine to D/J. General Lord Rawlinson commanded the Army in India from 1920 until his death in 1925. He went to India in late 1920 hoping to reshape the Indian Army along lines indicated by the Great War. Rawlinson hoped to introduce tanks and armoured cars in India and to provide for the Royal Air Force. Armed with the Esher Report, which sought to integrate the Indian military with Imperial forces, Rawlinson had good reason to be optimistic. The Mesopotamian Campaign had demonstrated the Army's shortcomings in sustained operation even east of Suez. To those accustomed to 'thinking imperially' a properly constituted and led Indian Army offered immense advantages in policing the new terrotories now to be administered. Instead, he encountered political and financial obstacles that baulked him at nearly every turn. This collections of Rawlinson's Indian documents uses his papers at the National Army Museum and also makes abundant use of Rawlinson's less familiar correspondence with General Sir Archibalkd Montgomoery, Field-Marshal Sir Henry Wilson, and the Earl of Derby. The book contributes to our understanding of the Indian Army but also sheds new light on the political difficulties faced by India's British rulers in the twilight of the Raj.
