" Several accounts of the British Expedition have been published. .... 



They have, however, been written by those who have not had access to those 



authentic documents, which cannot be collected directly after the termination 



of a campaign The endeavour of the author of this sketch has been to 



present to readers a succinct and impartial account of an enterprise which 

 has rarely been equalled in the annals of war." — Preface.

" We have before us a trusty and ready guide to the events of the fast 

 thirty years, available equally for the statesman, the politician, the public 

 writer, and the general reader. If Mr. Iruing^s object has been to bring 

 before the reader all the most noteworthy occurrences which have happened 

 since the beginning of Her Majesty'' s reign, he may justly claim the credit 

 of having done so most briefly, succinctly, and simply, and in such a 

 manner, too, as to furnish him with the details necessary in each case to 

 comprehend the event of which he is in search in an intelligent manner. 

 Reflection will serve to show the great value of such a work as this to the 

 journalist and statesman, and indeed to every one who feels an interest in 

 the progress of the age ; and we may add that its value is considerably in- 

 creased by the addition of that most important of all appendices, an 

 accurate and instructive index." — Times.
