  • My Experiences in Manipur and the Naga Hills by Major General Sir James Johnstone 1896 Archive.org. The account concerns the period 1873 to the operations in 1885-1886, at the time of the 3rd Burma War, when he retired with nearly 28 years’ service in India. Mainly he seems to have worked as a Political Agent, or similar.
