New Acquisitions

Purchased a couple of books online this week. The first is an annotated bibliography of Englishmen in colonial India, entitled Glimpses of India. Am hoping to discover some obscure memoirs by British officers who served in Mesopotamia. The second book is Captured at Kut, Prisoner of the Turks: The Great War Diaries of Colonel W. C. Spackman.  Spackman served as a medical officer and was captured after Kut fell. Looking forward to receiving both in the mail shortly. Still havent received my 4-vol set by Moberly...maybe they will all show up this week!
