This vintage book is highly recommended for those with an interest in Victorian romance fiction. Steel lived in British India for 22 years and is best known for her many novels set in or related to the country. She was perhaps most interested in the classes of Indian society, and giving birth to a daughter afforded her the opportunity to interact with local women and learn their language.
