Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anglo-Indian Domestic Life: A Letter From an Artist in India to His Mother in EnglandIt is probable that other indications of this hiatus will be discoverable than those which belong to more paper and type, and the retention of the juvenile character of the original com position; but they will, it is behaved, arise more from something like an antiquated air which the absence of that modern tone, and of any reference to various modern features which have been created by the Rebellion of 1857-8, than from any serious deficiency or inaccuracy of facts. The memorable events of that Rebellion, and the vast political changes they have wrought, appear to cut ofi' what may be called old India - India under the time honored rule of the east-india Company, and modern India under the sceptre of Queen Victoria, by an indefinite and great gulf.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Both of them were wives of civilians in the Indian Service of about equal standing: the first a commissioner, the second a collector. In manners and appearance both these ladies had much in common; Oboth exhibited certain points Of difference, which attracted the attention of the of 1501101 on board, and probably caused them some amusement. Mrs. Smythe was shocked, and felt immediately called on to correct the transgressor, if anyone was thoughtless or un mannerly enough to call her Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Forbes, whose sister kept a milliner's shop in Ayr, lost no Oppor tunity of calling attention to the pedigree of her husband. She possessed several books on heraldry, and was in some degree acquainted with the shields, cognizances, and crests of most of the titled families in Scotland. She'was abso lutely perfect in those with whom her husband's family had intermarried, or were entitled to Claim kindred. Whenever an heraldic se'ance had taken place (as Mrs. Smythe used to term the researches and expositions of Mrs. Forbes), the former lady would compassionately remark, as soon as her friend was out of hearing, Poor thing! Her little weakness in this respect serves to amuse her and occupy her mind her own family were nobodies, that we all know, and she has no children, therefore we must make'excuses for her.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Bottle in the Smoke a Tale of Anglo-Indian Life The early dawn had given place to the golden sunlight of the Indian morning, but there was still ample shade within certain nooks in the compound of a pleasant-looking two-storied house in one of the leafy roads of Madras. Under an old banyan tree, with its tent-like stems turned downwards and its dense canopy of green overhead, stood a dainty breakfast table. Early tea was over. One bamboo chair had already been vacated by its occupant; in the other, sat a young English lady. Only two months previously Hester Rayner had left home a bride. "She is happy, I think," was always the remark, accompanied by a sigh, made by her anxious mother, as she passed the closely written pages of the latest letter across the rectory breakfast table to her husband. The young wife's letters gave no untrue expression of her state of feeling, yet there were times when the dream-like sensation which pervaded her outlook on the new surroundings disturbed her. The spell of the East was strong; the tropical life, the vivid colouring, the brown-skinned multitudes, the waving palms, all seemed to belong to a bright pageant in which she was only a passing spectator. And now, with the simple sense of duty which had marked the only daughter of the Pinkthorpe Rectory, she was asking herself whether it was right to yield so entirely to the wooing of the magic present.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The White Dove of Amritzir a Romance of Anglo-Indian Life "Kasan Singh, how dare you!" and the speaker sprang up from before the table, at which he had been working, and looked down with an expression of mingled anger and pity at a man, crouching at his feet, muttering words in a strange tongue, but which, nevertheless, conveyed to the mind of the hearer a distinct idea of prayer and incantation. Far from being repulsed by the angry ejaculation, Kasan Singh's voice rose, as he dragged himself to where the officer stood, and then prostrated himself on the ground until his forehead touched the Englishman's feet. It was truly a strange scene. The first rays of the early morning sun, penetrating through the uplifted canvas, which formed the doorway, lit up the interior of a large, military tent. A huge Pathan, whose dark face was rendered still fiercer by his long hair, heavy black whiskers and moustache, stood at the entrance, a revolver in his hand, whilst in a corner half a dozen natives, clad in yellow robes with blue turbanned heads, crouched with outstretched hands, gazing in the direction of their comrade and of the man he was evidently adoring.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Kela Bai: An Anglo-Indian Idyll It was the time of divine weather after the rains. The hot season had burned itself away. The monsoon had burst in sweat-drops at the end of June. Then came four steaming months, when the air was white with the hiss and the swish and the swirl of the rains. The swollen Ganges overtopped her banks, and foamed among the roots of the yellow babul-bushes. Porpoises turned somersaults in the brown eddies. The rain-birds wailed in every dripping grove.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Indian The books which are to appear in this series are intended to present peculiar and characteristic phases of earlier development in that portion of our country which lies beyond the Missouri River. The specialization of American history has found expression in numerous studies of the colonial life of New England, New York, and Virginia, indeed, all the Eastern seaboard, and in discussions of explorations westward like those of the Spaniards to the south and the French to the north, and of migrations away from the seaboard, like the movement across the Blue Ridge to Kentucky, and the various patriarchal journeyings which began the settlement of Ohio and the middle West. The final occupation of the real West has come about almost in our own time. The first white male child born in Kansas is an honoured resident of the State to-day, and Kansas is venerable in comparison with States and Territories beyond. Speaking roughly, the Missouri divides sections very dissimilar in certain characteristics of their evolution.
