Sobre este artículo
Weidenfeld and Nicolson. 2012 1st.. 9.5 x 6.25 inches. In maroon cloth covers with gilt to spine. With illustrated dustwrapper. In near fine condition with very good dustwrapper. (d/w. slightly creased along top edge. Not price clipped). A very clean and tight copy. 335 pp. In the British Raj, men outnumbered women four to one. This created a social world where romances were converted to marriages very quickly. The life for women after marriage was often very different, spent miles away in remote outposts. This is the story of the British women who ventured to a new life in India.
