The Begum: A Hindu Comic Opera In Two Acts is a literary work written by Harry Bache Smith in 1887. The book is a humorous and satirical play that tells the story of a wealthy Indian woman, or Begum, who travels to America to find a suitable husband. Along the way, she encounters various characters, including a group of American socialites who are fascinated by her exoticism and a young American man who falls in love with her. The play explores themes of cultural differences, love, and social status. The Begum is a lighthearted and entertaining work that provides a glimpse into the attitudes and prejudices of the time period in which it was written.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
