Book Description Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. Hardcover. First Edition. The Patient Assassin. A True Tale of Massacre, Revenge and the Raj. On 13 April 1919, thousands of civilians gathered peacefully in Jallianwala Bagh, a walled garden in Amritsar. In the eyes of both the lieutenant governor of Punjab, Sir Michael O'Dwyer, and his top military man in the city, Brigadier General Dyer, such gatherings were proof that a second Indian mutiny was brewin in the province. Dyer decided to use the meeting to teach the natives a lesson. Blocking the main exit with armoured cars, he marched in with his men and commanded them to open fire without giving any order to disperse. In the murderous ten minutes that follwed, hundreds fell dead, and many more were wounded. According to legend Udham Singh was among the injured that day and, picking up a handful of blood-soaked earth, he vowed to take revenge on those responsible. More than twenty years later, in a Westminster hall, he gunned down O'Dwyer in cold blood to fulfil that promise. His actions made him a martyr in India and, to this day, his name is revered. But what happened in the intervening years? In this sweeping narrative that takes the reader across four continents, the author separates reality from myth to reveal Singh's astonishing story. Illustrated. 373 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
