The Humour and Pathos of Anglo-Indian Life

"The Humour and Pathos of Anglo-Indian Life" is an adventure novel on the life of a group of English men and women. The group is travelling back from India aboard the steamship 'Elephanta' as they reflect on the recent scenes enacted in India. Mr. John Marston had shown great foresight in anticipating the rebellion of the Indians against white rule. He had thus acquired and repaired an old mud fort which he equipped and stocked with supplies, before inviting all Europeans to take shelter when the uprising came. A move that doubtless had saved the now occupants of the ship when invasion of the Indians came. With the fight behind them and now safely on board the ship, a romance or two will bud among the shipmates before they reach home.
