My Three Years in Manipur and Escape from the Recent Mutiny is a memoir written by Ethel St. Clair Grimwood in 1892. The book recounts Grimwood's experiences during her three-year stay in Manipur, a state in northeastern India, during the late 19th century. Grimwood was the wife of a British officer stationed in Manipur, and she describes in detail the customs, traditions, and daily life of the Manipuri people. However, the book is most notable for its account of the Manipur Rebellion of 1891, also known as the Anglo-Manipur War. Grimwood and her family were caught up in the conflict, which saw the Manipuri people rise up against British colonial rule. The book describes the violence and chaos that ensued, as well as Grimwood's harrowing escape from the region with her children. Overall, My Three Years in Manipur and Escape from the Recent Mutiny provides a fascinating glimpse into a little-known period of Indian history, as well as a personal account of one woman's experiences during a time of great upheaval.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
