Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The first of John Master's evocative memoirs about life in the Gurkhas in India on the cusp of WWIIJohn Masters was a soldier before he became a bestselling novelist. He went to Sandhurst in 1933 at the age of eighteen and was commissioned into the 4th Gurkha Rifles in time to take part in some of the last campaigns on the turbulent north-west frontier of India.John Masters joined a Gurhka regiment on receiving his commission, and his depiction of garrison life and campaigning on the North-West Frontier has never been surpassed. BUGLES AND A TIGER is a matchless evocation of the British Army in India on the eve of the Second World War. Still very much the army depicted by Kipling, it stands on the threshold of a war that will transform the world. This book is the first of three volumes of autobiography that touched a chord in the post-war world. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Octavo, green cloth & patterned boards (hardcover), gilt letters and decorations to spine, uncut, illustrations, 321 pp. Good. From Foreword: This is a factual story, but not a history. Please do not pounce on me with scorn if it turns out there were seven, not eight, platoons of Tochi Scouts on the Iblanke that night of May 11-12, 1937. For the purpose of this book, it does not matter. That purpose is to tell the story of how a schoolboy became a professional soldier of the old Indian Army. This is also the tale of a race against time, for the Second World War is beginning as this story ends. in the course of the story I hope to have given an idea of what India was like in those last twilight days of the Indian Empire, and something more than a tourist's view of some of the people who lived there.
