Russell's Diary in India of 1858-1859 provides a fascinating account of the conflict known as the Indian Mutiny, the first Indian war of independence of 1857-1859. It is particularly interesting in its coverage of the British reprisals after the initial Indian victories, advocating leniency, rebuilding, cooperation, and reform. Volume 1 covers his journey to India and first impressions.
