Descrizione The Chartist General
General Charles Napier kept the peace in England during the Chartist protests in 1839. Then he conquered Sind. In this careful, well-written biography of Napier, Beasley shows that both the peacemaking and the warmongering came from Napier's liberal universalism, imposing on Islamic Sind the freedom he sought for England.
