Whitburn, BillBRIGHT EYES OF DANGER: An Account of the Anglo-Sikh Wars 1845-1849 Analyzes the British advancement in India during the latter part of the eighteenth century. Gives a vivid account of the seven battles and one siege of the two wars with the Sikhs. The first was brought on by the demise of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, the machinations of palace officials, and rapacity of the Sikh Army. The second war erupted with a rebellion at Multan. The British Army advanced to battle with a new Governor-General and the same Commander-in-Chief, Lord Gough, whose catalogue of tactics did not extend beyond the awesome charge of British bayonets. Having rocked the British Indian Empire at Ferozeshah, Ranjit Singh's soldiers helped save it during the Great Indian Mutiny, and later in both the World Wars.?
