The Governor-General's Body Guard is a historical non-fiction book written by Ernest J. Chambers and published in 1902. The book provides an in-depth account of the Governor-General's Body Guard, a prestigious cavalry regiment that served as the personal guard of the British Governor-General in India during the 19th century.Chambers' book covers the regiment's origins, which date back to the 1770s, and its role in various military campaigns and conflicts in India, including the Indian Mutiny of 1857. The author also provides details on the regiment's organization, training, uniforms, and equipment, as well as the daily life of its members.The book is richly illustrated with photographs, engravings, and maps, and includes a comprehensive list of the regiment's officers and men. It also features personal anecdotes and stories from the members of the regiment, adding a human touch to the historical account.Overall, The Governor-General's Body Guard is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of British India, military history, or the role of cavalry in warfare.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
