The Tourist's Guide to Lucknow

Hilton was one of the La Martinire College boys who participated in the defence of Lucknow, and the greater part of his guide relates to the events of the Mutiny. The Boys' College is the only school in the world to have been awarded royal battle honours, for its role in the defence of Lucknow during 1857. This work usefully includes a 'complete' Nominal list of the European members of the Lucknow garrison, beneficially women and children are also shown along with casualty status (killed, dead and wounded). A good plan of the 'Intrenched Position' at Lucknow completes this informative account.
