In 1857, India rose in a massive revolt against British rule.
What followed was a wave of British anger — calls for blood, for vengeance, for fire.
The press exaggerated, the public raged.
But one man refused to join the frenzy.
Charles Canning, the Governor-General of India, chose restraint.
He limited executions, suppressed reprisals, and earned a nickname meant to shame him: “Clemency Canning.”
In a time of chaos and cruelty, he stood for discipline and dignity.
This is the story of the man the empire chose to forget — because he didn’t burn.
