This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature.
In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards:
1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a fresh and newly reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions.
2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work.

Person
Alice Perrin, also known as Alice Robinson, was a British novelist born on July 15, 1867, in Mussoorie, India. She is best known for her works that explore the lives of the British in colonial India, offering insights into the experiences and challenges of British expatriates during that time. Perrin gained significant success with the publication of her short ghost story collection East of Suez, which helped establish her as a notable writer. Throughout her career, she wrote numerous novels and short stories, often focusing on themes of colonialism, cultural encounters, and the complexities of life in India under British rule. Her works were widely read in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and she became known for her ability to capture the nuances of British life in colonial settings. Alice Perrin passed away on February 13, 1934, in Vevey, Switzerland, at the age of 66. She had one son, Lancelot Charles Perrin. Her legacy endures through her writings, which continue to be a valuable resource for understanding the cultural and social dynamics of the British Empire in India.
