In 1942 Gyles Mackrell, a tea-planter, went into North Burma with 20 elephants and a team of mahuts to rescue starving Indian army soldiers, British civilians and their servants from the pursuing Japanese. This largely unknown story paints a picture of fading British imperial virtues at their most dignified and robust.
