DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Historical Records of the Governor-General's Body Guard IT is hoped that the following pages illustrative of the part played by the governor-general's Body Guard, the Senior Corps of the Indian Army, in the building up of the Empire of India, may conclusively prove, in the words used by the Directors of the Honourable East India Company in 1805, that, the Body Guard is not kept up for purposes of mere parade but is capable of rendering useful Services in the Field. It is believed that this unofficial History, incomplete though it be, presents an authentic record of the deeds and exploits, both in the Field and at Court, of the governor-general's Body Guard, from its formation in 1773 down to the end of 1908.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A regimental history of the gorgeously attired bodyguard of the Viceroys and Governor-Generals of British-ruled India in its heyday from 1773 to 1908, this well-illustrated book is a feast for anyone interested in India under the Raj. The minutes of 'secret consultations' describe the formation and recruitment of the Corps. Also included are the early quarrels between Governor Warren Hastings and Gen. Clavering which ultimately led to the former man's trial. The bodyguard were not strictly for ceremony only, and took part in many actions, including the campaigns in Mysore (1791-1792); Java (1811); the Mahratta Wars.
