He also left a graphic account of his experiences in the Malakand campaign, ... in the First World War and in the Third Afghan War ... [The editor] has edited and annotated Tyndall's diary in order to make it fully accessible to the modern reader. He has also extended the narrative to cover the years after 1915 in order to give a full account of Tyndall's later career"--Dust jacket. 190 pages, Hard cover, very good, with dust jacket, spine sun faded
