Bobs: Kipling's General: The Life of Field Marshall Earl Roberts of Kandahar VC (1972) By W. H. Hannah
 
Bobs' served for a total of forty-one years in India, at a time when the Indian Army was both unfashionable and unadvantageous. In those years he rose from Horse Artillery subaltern to Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army. He served with distinction in the Indian Mutiny, winning the VC for repeated acts of heroism, but he will chiefly be remembered as the man who curbed the unruly spirit of the Afghans, bringing peace to the North-West Frontier. Book has ten photographs and four maps
