Mercy of the Lord e-bog

"e;The Mercy of the Lord"e; is a 1894 collection of short stories by Flora Annie Steel. Flora Annie Steel (1847 - 1929) was an English writer who notably lived in British India for 22 years and is best remembered for her books set or related to the sub-continent. Like most of her work, these tales are set in colonial India and offer a unique insight into what life was like at that time. "e;The Mercy of the Lord"e; is highly recommended for those with an interest in India's history and is not to be missed by lovers of short stories. The stories include: "e;The Mercy Of The Lord"e;, "e;Salt Duty"e;, "e;The Wisdom Of Our Lord Ganesh"e;, "e;The Son Of A King"e;, "e;The Birth Of Fire"e;, "e;The Gift Of Battle"e;, "e;The Value Of A Vote"e;, "e;Salt Of The Earth"e;, "e;An Appreciated Rupee"e;, "e;The Lake Of High Hope"e;, "e;Retaining Fees"e;, "e;His Chance"e;, etc. Other notable works by this author include: "e;Tales of the Punjab"e; (1894), "e;The Flower of Forgiveness"e; (1894), and "e;The Potter's Thumb"e; (1894). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an essay from "e;The Garden of Fidelity"e; by R. R. Clark.
