Abstract "Why did the nonviolent mutiny of Indian soldiers at Meerut in 1857 lead to a war that threatened to destroy the British Empire from within? Foregrounding the role of women, William Pinch demonstrates the importance of gender, honour, and humiliation in 1857, as well as their literary and historiographical reverberations"-- Provided by publisher.
