Bugles and a Tiger: A Volume of Autobiography
John Masters
The author, an Englishman, tells the story of his own life as an officer in the Indian Army.
This first of the novelist’s three volumes of
autobiography is quite an interesting addition to the tradition of a
soldier’s account of his transformations from experiences as a youth
with military training and subsequent maturation through service in the
field. That’s because of its setting in India in the twilight of the
British Empire in the 1930s and because of his personal collision
between the elitism experienced at the Sandhurst Royal Military Academy
and the family-like sense of belonging he gained from serving in a
Gurkha regiment of the British Indian Army.
