The author of Wellington in the Peninsula presents an in-depth study of the British military commander’s early career in Colonial India. Before Arthur Wellesley, the future 1st Duke of Wellington, faced Napoleon's armies, he developed his skills as a military commander in the far reaches of the British Empire. In India, Wellesley led his men to victory against the Tipu Sultan at the Battle of Mallavelly, and suffered injury at the Battle of Seringapatam. He would later put his experience of strategy and tactics to masterly effect against his most formidable opponent in years to come. Historian Jac Weller gives a complete account of Wellington's career in India, the battles and sieges he undertook, the challenges he faced, and the lessons he learned. Weller explores the first major steps in Wellesley's career and demonstrates how these early triumphs set him on the road that would eventually lead to Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo.

This “superb account of the British Army under Wellington in India reads like one of Bernard Cornwell’s Sharpe novels, or, better still, a Flashman novel” (Books Monthly). The Peninsular War and the Napoleonic Wars across Europe are subjects of such enduring interest that they have prompted extensive research and writing. Yet other campaigns, in what was a global war, have been largely ignored. Such is the case for the war in India which persisted for much of the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic periods and peaked in the years 1798-1805 with the campaigns of Arthur Wellesley—later the Duke of Wellington—and General Lake in the Deccan and Hindustan. That is why this new study by Martin Howard is so timely and important. While it fully acknowledges Wellington’s vital role, it also addresses the nature of the warring armies, the significance of the campaigns of Lake in North India, and leaves the reader with an understanding of the human experience of war in the region. For this was a brutal conflict in which British armies clashed with the formidable forces of the Sultan of Mysore and the Maratha princes. There were dramatic pitched battles at Assaye, Argaum, Delhi and Laswari, and epic sieges at Seringapatam, Gawilghur and Bhurtpore. The British success was not universal. “An absorbing account of Wellesley/Lord Wellington which shows how his actions in India had a significant effect on the development of the British Empire and events through to the modern era.—Highly Recommended.” —Firetrench “An eye opener on the power and influence of the East India Company at this time. A jolly good read.” —Clash of Steel

Excerpt from Wellington in India Wellesley's government, it is not intended to detail the movements or the actions of the different armies.' Thus a reader, unacquainted with the general subject, would fail to gain from this document any idea of much which is distinctively associated with the great name of Wellesley. But, considering the part played by the writer in India, not the least notable, and a very characteristic circumstance, is his rigid and systematic effacing of himself. The march of the British troops on Poona, and the occupation of that city, are mentioned impersonally. Once, and once only, it is said The commander in the Deccan wrote, and the success of the war is ascribed to various true causes, but nothing is said of the General. Such abstemiousness was, of course, quite proper. But would many men have practised it? Would the conqueror of Sinde, who was fond of taking lessons from 'the Great Master' (as he calls the Duke), have been so reticent? But here, as ever, Wellington attended strictly to the business before him; and did it thoroughly, because he did not allow himself to be distracted by personal considerations. To represent, exactly though tersely, the unpromising aspect of the political world of India, on Lord Mornington's arrival in the country; to describe and justify the remedial processes conceived and adopted by the governor-general; to exhibit the orderly and majestic march of his policy, as it successively braced up our own energies, revivi fied our alliances, struck down our enemies, extended our influence for good, and incidentally our dominions removed inveterate evils; guarded against the recurrence of serious dangers; and laid wide and deep the strong foundations of good government, such as had never hitherto existed, or been thought possible, in such a state of society; to dis close the natural connexion of one measure with another, so that the whole administration seemed but a series of graduated upheavals from chaos to cosmos; to remove prejudices and answer objections, not by fine phrases and Special pleading, but by a well-marshalled array of indisputable and massive facts - such appears to have been his aim; and in this he has certainly succeeded.
