DÉDICACE À L’ARMÉE FRANÇAISE




to the French Army
whose glorious antecedents
under a long succession of illustrious leaders
in all quarters of the globe
History has immortalised
and whose world-wide prestige
it will ever be its proud ambition
to emulate and sustain
this impartial and admiring record
of its brave deeds in India
is dedicated
by an English officer.
