Description
"On the Face of the Waters - A Tale of Mutiny" is a 1896 historical novel by Flora Annie Steel set in 1850s India during the Sepoy Rebellion, which resulted in the dissolution of the British East India Company. Flora Annie Steel (1847 - 1929) was an English writer who notably lived in British India for 22 years. She is best remembered for her books set or related to the sub-continent. Other notable works by this author include: "Tales of the Punjab" (1894), "The Flower of Forgiveness" (1894), and "The Potter's Thumb" (1894). Contents include: "Thistledown And Gossamer", "The Blowing Of The Bubble", "From Dusk To Dawn", "Such Stuff As Dreams Are Made Of", and "There Arose A Man". This fantastic novel will appeal to those with an interest in India, especially India under British rule and what effects that had on its society and history. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
