I am looking to see if I can find the following book either on-line or
in a store somewhere. It is called "The Connaught Rangers" by T.O.
Klfeather. It is referenced in some listings on Google but I have yet
to find the actual book. It pertains to the history of a famous
regiment of the British Army. They were Irish and they mutinied while
stationed in India in 1916.
