Edmund Candler : Siri Ram Revolutionist: A Transcript from Life

'Many thanks for the inscribed copy. [...]. On the 28th May I finished correcting the last pages of "Rescue" [...]. The same evening I picked up "Sri Ram" as I limped to bed, and went on reading it through the still, very still, hours of night to the end, marvelling and musing over the pages.'

Edmund Candler : The Sepoy
