THE STORY OF THE GUIDES - THE EXPLOITS OF THE SOLDIERS OF THE FAMOUS INDIAN ARMY REGIMENT FROM THE NORTHWEST FRONTIER 1847 - 1900Most regiments can lay claim to renown, but some transcend this to achieve fame. The Guides - a corps. of both infantry and cavalry is one of the exalted few. Founded by Harry Lumsden (himself a figure of fame in British Indian history) its Khaki clad troops fought with distinction in a series of wars from the Sikh War to the Indian Mutiny and the Afghan war of 1878-80. They were present at the relief of Chitral and in the Malakand Expedition, but it is their consummate skill in the campaigns and skirmishes with the tribes of the ’burning border’ that brought them to their own. This is the story of the Victorian campaigns of the Guides - from 1847 to 1900.
