DOWNLOAD EBOOK“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.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA word of explanation is needed for this book, which, in attempting to be at once a story and a history, probably fails in either aim.That, however, is for the reader to say. As the writer, I have only to point out where my history ends, my story begins, and clear the way for criticism. Briefly, then, I have not allowed fiction to interfere with fact in the slightest degree. The reader may rest assured that every incident bearing in the remotest degree on the Indian Mutiny, or on the part which real men took in it, is scrupulously exact, even to the date, the hour, the scene, the very weather. Nor have I allowed the actual actors in the great tragedy to say a word regarding it which is not to be found in the accounts of eye-witnesses, or in their own writings.In like manner, the account of the sham court at Delhi--which I have drawn chiefly from the lips of those who saw it--is pure history; and the picturesque group of schemers and dupes--all of whom have passed to their account--did not need a single touch of fancy in its presentment. Even the story of Abool-Bukr and Newâsi is true; save that I have supplied a cause for an estrangement, which undoubtedly did come to a companionship of which none speak evil. So much for my facts.Regarding my fiction: An Englishwoman was concealed in Delhi, in the house of an Afghan, and succeeded in escaping to the Ridge just before the siege. I have imagined another; that is all. I mention this because it may possibly be said that the incident is incredible.And now a word for my title. I have chosen it because when you ask an uneducated native of India why the Great Rebellion came to pass, he will, in nine cases out of ten, reply, "God knows! He sent a Breath into the World." From this to a Spirit moving on the face of the Waters is not far. For the rest I have tried to give a photograph--that is, a picture in which the differentiation caused by color is left out--of a time which neither the fair race or the dark race is ever likely to quite forget or forgive.That they may come nearer to the latter is the object with which this book has been written.
