 helplessly from Maho, Kankal, and Pondicherry, while the French are ruling all over 

 Madras, and spending millions of francs in attempting to cultivate tho slopes of the 

 Neilghernes, may be learnt from this modest volume. Colonel Malleeon is always 

 painstakmg, and generally accurale; his style is transparent, and be never loses sight 

 or the purpose with which ho commenced to write."— Soterrfay Review 



"A book dealing with such a period of our history in the East, besides being 

 interesting, contams many lessons. It is written in a stylo that will bo popular with 

 general readers."— ^«AenoE«m. 



"It strikes one as the best thing he has yet done. Searching, yet easy, his pen goes 

 with unflagging power through the military wonders of a hundred years, connecting 

 the accounts of battles by a suiScient historic thread."— J.oade)ni/. 



History of Afghanistan, from the Earliest Period to the Outbreak of the 

 War of 1878, with map, demy Svo, l8s. 

 " The name of Colonel Malleson on tho title-page of any historical work in relation 

 to India or the neighbouring States is a satisfactory guarantee both for the accuracy 

 of the facts and tho brilliancy of the narrative. The author may be complimented upon 

 having written a History of Afghanistan which is likely to become a work of standard 

 authority." — Scolsman. 



The Battle-Fields of Germany, from the Outbreak of the Thirty Years' 



War to the Battle of Blenheim, with maps and one plan, demy Svo, 



i6s. 



'* Colonel Malleson has shown a grasp of his subject, ond a power of vivifying the 



confnsed passages of battle, in which it would be impossible to name any living writer 



as his equal. In imbuing these almost forgotten battle-fields wilh fresh interest anil 



reality for the English reader, he is re-opening one of the most important chapters of 



European History, which no previous English writer has made so interesting and 



instructive as he has succeeded in doing in this volume." — Academy.

 famous instances of the Leading into Ambush and the Surprises of 

 Armies, from the time of Hannibal to the period of the Indian Mutiny,
