John Company's Last War door Barbara English
This short book covers the The Anglo-Persian War of 1856-57 but with that certain style of narrative that I so often find in British writers who can relate a good story. The war itself was rather short yet the author manages to make it an interesting tale. There are shenanigans in the Cabinet, an ass of a mission secretary, a mysterious woman, umbrage taken by most everyone, naval bombardments, thrilling land battles and at least two unexpected suicides. Well worth the read.
