The Captivity, Sufferings, and Escape of James Scurry is a memoir written by James Scurry, detailing his ten-year captivity in the dominions of Hyder Ali, an Indian ruler, during the late 18th century. The book describes the harrowing experiences Scurry endured as a prisoner, including torture, starvation, and disease. It also provides insight into the political and cultural climate of India at the time, as well as the interactions between the British and Indian forces. Scurry's eventual escape and return to England are also chronicled in the book. Overall, The Captivity, Sufferings, and Escape of James Scurry is a gripping and informative account of a tumultuous period in Indian and British history.And Tippoo Saib.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
