About this ebook
Complete and unabridged, with 57 full-page plates by Edwin Lord Weeks, Edvard Munch and George Catlin. India, 1857: a young British officer and a Rajput princess, a fakir who is not what he seems, and a fortress that must hold when the Mutiny comes. Mundy was born William Gribbon, spent his twenties in India and East Africa as an ivory poacher and confidence man, and was jailed for it before reinventing himself in America; the disreputable years are why his India smells right. Fifty-seven plates, among them Edwin Lord Weeks and Horace Vernet, carry the markets, gateways and battlefields of the old Raj through the years of the Mutiny.
