About this book
The Tremendous Adventures of Major Gahagan is by William Makepeace Thackeray. The contents list names, among others, chapters called "ALLYGHUR AND LASWAREE" and "FAMINE IN THE GARRISON". A first-person speaker says "Holkar, I know thee, and thou knowest me too!" and "Gahagan hates thee, spurns thee, spits on thee!"
A cry reads "Papa! oh, save him!", and a line reads "It was Puttee Rooge!" A first-person passage says "As the commander of this regiment, I was allowed to settle the uniform of the corps, as well as to select recruits." A passage with a diagram says "x is the line taken by the ball fired from G, which took off one hundred and thirty-four elephants’ trunks".
