Description
""Machassan Ah"" is a book written by Talbot Mundy, an English-born writer who spent much of his life in India. The book tells the story of a young British man named John Meredith who travels to India in search of adventure. While there, he becomes fascinated with the local culture and customs, particularly those of the Machassan people, a group of Muslim traders who travel by sea from the Persian Gulf to the Indian coast. Through his interactions with the Machassan people, John learns about their way of life and the challenges they face in a changing world. He also becomes embroiled in a political plot involving the Machassans and the British government, which threatens to destroy the delicate balance of power in the region. ""Machassan Ah"" is a thrilling adventure story that explores themes of cultural exchange, colonialism, and the clash between tradition and modernity.It was not until they had debouched (as Crothers termed it) to their half-right front and had taken to a narrow one-man track that ran below the wall that any over attention was paid them. Suddenly a hook-nosed Asiatic gentleman emerged through the once-was gateway-- a picture of a Bible shepherd but for the long-barreled gun he carried instead of crook--a brown shadow against brown masonry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
