In Times Of Peril A Tale Of India is a historical fiction book written by G. A. Henty. The story is set in India during the 1850s, a time when the country was under British rule. The protagonist of the story is Walter, a young British soldier who is sent to India to fight against the local rebels.As Walter arrives in India, he realizes that the situation is much more complicated than he had anticipated. The local rebels are not just a group of angry peasants, but a well-organized army that is determined to drive the British out of India. Walter faces many challenges as he fights against the rebels, including battles, espionage, and betrayal.Throughout the book, Henty provides a detailed description of the Indian culture, customs, and traditions. He also highlights the political and social issues that were prevalent during that time, such as the conflict between the British and the local population.The book is not just a thrilling adventure story, but also a historical account of the British rule in India. Henty's writing style is engaging and descriptive, making the reader feel as though they are right in the middle of the action. The book is suitable for both young adults and adults who enjoy historical fiction and adventure stories.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
