For over two hundred years the British maintained a powerful military system in India. If it is recalled at all in the popular imagination of today, the Victorian Indian Army is remembered as much for its use in the pomp and ceremony of grand imperial occasions as for anything else – as a colourful adjunct to the parades, processions and rituals of British India. This book provides a glimpse into a complex, multi-layered and evolving institution and offers an introduction to the uniforms, arms and services of the Indian Army at the height of the Raj.
