1857 Classics - I

The work included in this book is Naunaga of Munshi Mendi La'l, which is an elucidation of the actions of Wajid Ali Shah on the eve of his deposition in a highly eulogistic strain, a paneygyric of the Britishers and a caricature of the matinees; but despite that it is an important and invaluable source on 1857 about the events of Lucknow and the adjoining areas and brings to the limelight some new facts. It is a blunt but frank exposition of the mutineers.
