About this book

Through Three Campaigns is subtitled A Story of Chitral, Tirah and Ashanti and is credited to G. A. Henty. The contents list, among others, has chapters called The Dargai Pass, Captured and The Relief Of Coomassie. Lisle says he wants to take part in the expedition and is quite prepared to share in the habits and hardships of the men, whatever they may be.

One speaker calls it certainly best to take Mutteh Ghar's name, as the soldiers will see nothing strange in placing a young recruit in the ranks, after his cousin had died in the regiment. The text says that success in capturing the two passes hitherto deemed impregnable brought about a complete collapse of the enemy. Under the heading Chapter 11 : An Arduous March, Lisle is said to have heard of the operations that had been carried on by the brigade under General Gazelee, under the general supervision of Sir William Lockhart.
