Description
""The Captivity, Sufferings, and Escape of James Scurry"" is a memoir written by James Scurry himself, detailing his ten-year imprisonment in the dominions of Hyder Ali, an Indian ruler, in the late 18th century. Scurry was a British soldier who was captured during a battle and held captive by Ali's forces. The book recounts his experiences as a prisoner, including the harsh treatment he endured, the difficult living conditions, and the constant threat of death. Despite the challenges, Scurry managed to escape and make his way back to British-held territory. The book provides a firsthand account of life as a prisoner of war in India during this time period and sheds light on the relationship between the British and Indian rulers. It is a fascinating and harrowing tale of survival and endurance that offers a unique perspective on a little-known aspect of history.And Tippoo Saib.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
