AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The author of this story of high adventure on the north-west, frontier of India appears to know his men and their region very well. His novel has plenty of color and movement, and if the writing is somewhat stilted in parts the interest is always sustained.' (http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article245332650)
