His Native Land is a novel written by Alfred Jonathan Binnie, first published in 1881. The story is set in colonial India during the British Raj, and follows the life of a young Englishman named Edward Fortescue. Edward is sent to India to work for the East India Company, and initially struggles to adapt to the culture and customs of his new home.As Edward begins to explore India, he becomes increasingly fascinated by its rich history and diverse population. He forms close friendships with several Indian men, including a wealthy merchant named Ram Lal and a young revolutionary named Ram Mohan. Through these friendships, Edward gains a deeper understanding of Indian life and culture, and begins to question the morality of British rule in India.As Edward's views begin to shift, he becomes involved in the Indian independence movement, and works alongside Ram Mohan and other revolutionaries to fight against British oppression. However, his involvement in the movement puts him in danger, and he must navigate a complex web of political intrigue and betrayal to stay alive.Throughout the novel, Binnie explores themes of colonialism, cultural identity, and the struggle for independence. His Native Land is a thought-provoking and engaging work of historical fiction that offers a unique perspective on the complex relationship between India and Britain during the colonial era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
