Charles John Griffiths was an author known for chronicling historical military events, particularly drawing from firsthand experience. Born in the nineteenth century to parents whose names are not recorded, he gained recognition for his detailed account of a key episode in British colonial military history. His most notable work, A Narrative of the Siege of Delhi, captures vivid scenes of conflict, tension, and perseverance during a defining siege of the great Indian rebellion of 1857. While little is known about his personal life, family background, or broader career outside his writings, Griffiths s account provides a valuable window into the experiences of soldiers and officers during a turbulent era. His writing reflects a careful attention to military detail and an intent to preserve the memory of those who served.
