Jérôme Bonaparte, der jüngste Bruder Napoleons, lenkte für sieben Jahre die Geschicke eines neuen und modernen Staates auf deutschem Terrain - des Königreichs Westphalen (1807-1813). Für die deutschsprachige Publizistik des 19. Jahrhunderts war diese französische Vergangenheit ein ungeliebtes Kapitel der eigenen Geschichte. Dennoch blieben vor allem in den betroffenen Gebieten Hessen, Braunschweig, Hannover und Westfalen zahlreiche Formen der Erinnerungen jahrzehntelang lebendig. Wie lassen sich diese Spuren heute nachzeichnen? Welche Bedeutung hatte die westphälische Vergangenheit für die Bevölkerung und welche Rolle spielte die englisch- und französischsprachige Geschichtsschreibung bei diesen Erinnerungsprozessen?.

This two-volume work, published in 1847 by cavalry officer Daniel Henry Mackinnon (1813-84) describes his military service in India, in the campaigns against the Afghans in 1839 and the Sikhs in 1845-6. In the first edition, reissued here, the author is referred to only as 'a cavalry officer', but in the second edition of 1849, Mackinnon, a career soldier and writer, abandons his anonymity. Volume 1 begins with a lively account of the Andaman Islands, before 'arrival in India' at Calcutta and a long march past the foothills of the Himalayas to the North-West Frontier province. Mackinnon fought at the decisive battle of Ghuzni in the First Anglo-Afghan War, and provides an eye-witness account of the storming of the city, though his description of the political and diplomatic conflicts which preceded the outbreak of the wars is somewhat simplistic, and inevitably Anglophile.
