About This Item
Ten years before the Indian Mutiny, Emily Metcalfe joined her father at the Moghul Court. Her reminiscences provide a sparkling account of a young lady growing up amidst the flamboyant finery of the dying Moghul Empire. Adding an extra dimension is the inclusion of over 100 facsimile pages of the Dehlie Book compiled by her father. Words and pictures combine to give a powerful evocative view of a world forever lost. 220pages with over 100 colour illustrations including a large foldout of an Indian procession. Book and dust jacket in very good+ condition.
