Trade Paperback. Condición: Fine. Reprint. THE AMRITSAR MASSACRE Twilight of the Raj. Alfred Draper. Ashford, Buchan & Enright Ltd, Leatherhead. 1993 Reprint ISBN 9780907675396 302pp Illustrated Trade Paperback. This copy is in fine, unread condition, bright, white, tight and square, in illustrated card covers as issued. There is some creasing to the front panel. The Jallianwala Bagh massacre (or the Amritsar massacre), took place in the northern Indian city of Amritsar on 13 April 1919. The shooting that took place was ordered by British local commander Brigadier-General Dyer and carried out with 50 Gurkhas, a number of local Indian troops and, held back from their "demob" after WWI, 50 soldiers of the London Bicycle (!) Battalion. There were in fact two massacres that horrible day - in the first the enraged Amritsar mob ran amok, burnt three banks, murdered all the Europeans they found and burned the documents, furniture and the British staff in fires set on the streets. They abused and severely beat two English women they trapped . distressingly both had spent their lives in the Punjab helping the poor. The second massacre, at a proscribed political meeting in the walled-park, was perpetuated by the British forces and was far more deadly with around 397 (officially stated) deaths and many hundreds of wounded. Indian claims state that it was more like 2,000 victims. Quite unaware that the immediate approval of his Lieutenant Governor (Sir Michael O'Dwyer) was unofficial and later denied, the stiff soldier truthfully and innocently condemned himself at the subsequent hearings. "I think it quite possible" stated Dyer" that I could have dispersed the crowd without firing but they would have come back again and laughed, and I would have made, what I consider, a fool of myself." Forcibly retired and sent home in disgrace and under censure Dyer was championed by many as a political `scapegoat'. Ref OO3.
