Description
A Call to Arms by Allan Mallinson is an action-packed adventure set in India in 1819. Matthew Hervey and his men are tasked with raising a new troop and organising transport for the Indian campaign, but they soon find themselves facing a trial that tests their skills and bravery. As Burmese war-boats assemble near Chittagong, Hervey and his soldiers must navigate treacherous jungle terrain to thwart the enemy's advance. This is the fourth book in Allan Mallinson's Matthew Hervey series, following A Close Run Thing, The Nizam's Daughters, and A Regimental Affair. With its vivid portrayal of 19th-century military life, A Call to Arms promises a gripping and entertaining read for fans of historical fiction and military adventures.
