India and the Punjab A large military battle plan showing the actions of the 14th November and 1st December 1844 and 7th April 1842 fought by the troops under the command of Major General Sir Robert Sale KCB by Hamlet Wade Capt HM 15th Lt infantry Major of Brigade to the Force. Major General Sir Robert Henry Sale was a British Army officer who commanded the garrison of Jalalabad during the First Afghan War. After severe fighting Sale entered Jallalabad on 12 November 1841. Ten days previously he had received news of the murder of Sir Alexander Burnes along with orders to return with all speed to Kabul. These orders he for various reasons decided to ignore; suppressing his personal desire to return to protect his wife and family he gave orders to push on and on occupying Jalalabad at once set about making the old and half-ruined fortress fit to stand a siege. At last General Pollock and the relieving army appeared only to find that the garrison had on 7 April 1842 relieved itself by a brilliant and completely successful attack on Akbar Khan`s lines. Sir Robert Sale was promoted within the Order of the Bath to Knight Grand Cross (GCB); a medal was struck for all ranks of defenders and salutes fired at every large cantonment in India. At the end of the war Sale received the thanks of parliament. In 1845 as quartermaster-general to Sir Hugh Gough`s army Sale again took the field in the First Sikh War. At Moodkee he was mortally wounded and he died on 21 December 1845. A rare military map unusually large measures approx 60cms x 50cms.
