The Author of this work desiring, for military reasons, to withhold his name, the Publishers feel it due to the public to vouch for the authenticity of the "Diary," by stating that the Author is an officer of the Staff of the Anglo-Indian Army, and was in Lucknow during the whole of the siege; as, indeed, will be apparent from the full details he has given of all that transpired in the garrison.
They beg to add that the only alteration made by them is the substitution of the most recent and complete list of the killed and wounded during the defence, as given in the "Homeward Mail," for the list appended to the MS. They have also added the eloquent despatch of Brigadier Inglis, recording the services of the garrison.
