"Observations on the Disturbances in the Madras Army in 1809" by John Malcolm
The Madras Army was the army of the Presidency of Madras, one of the three presidencies of British India within the British Empire. In this book, the army is discussed in great detail. As a member of the army himself, Malcolm was privy to the ins and the outs of life as a soldier. As such, he was one of the few men who could be trusted to write a commentary on the matter.
