À propos de cet e-book

THIS BOOK is written for all little lads and lasses, but especially for the former, since it is the truequite truestory of a little lad who lived to be, perhaps, the greatest king this world has ever seen.It is a strange, wild tale this of the adventures of Prince Akbar among the snowy mountains between Kandahar and Kabul, and though the names may be a bit of a puzzle at first, as they will have to be learned by and bye in geography and history lessons, it might be as well to get familiar with them in a story-book; though, indeed, as everybody in it except Roy the Rajput, Meroo the cook boy; Tumbu, the dog; and Down, the cat (and these four may have been true, you know, though they have not been remembered) really lived, I don't know whether this book oughtn't to be considered real history, and thereforeA LESSON BOOK:"Anyhow, I hope you won't find it dull."STORIES:FAREWELLTHE FIRST VICTORYTHE ROYAL UMBRELLATUMBU-DOWNON THE ROADAT COURTWINTERDOWN'S STRATAGEMSPRINGTHE NIGHT OF RECORDA WINTER MARCHSNOW AND ICEOVER THE PASSIN THE VALLEYDEAREST-LADYCRUEL BROTHER KUMRANIMPRISONMENTTHE GARDEN OF GAMESBETWIXT CUP AND LIPESCAPEDDAWN
