''Ten years in India in the 16th Lancers, and three years in Africa in the Cape Corps Levies''. Toronto: Hunter Rose, 1880.
"This book, which is available online through the [http://www.archive.org/details/tenyearsinindiai00gouluoft Canadian Libraries Internet Archive], records the author’s ten year tour of duty with the 16th Lancers in India from 1837 to 1846, gives a fascinating insight into the early days of the Raj, and life in the British Army. It also explores his later military exploits with the Cape Corps Levies in Africa. It will appeal to those who have military ancestors, and those who are interested in military history – with the added spice of eye-witness accounts of that history.
