Details

The Far Pavilions spans the 25 years between the Sepoy Uprisings of 1857 and the Second Afghan War, telling the story of forbidden love between a British Officer 'Ashton Pelham-Martyn' and an Indian Princess 'Anjuli'. This epic story evokes the romance of India, the intrigue of the Rajput Court and the over-confidence of an Empire at the height of its power. The Far Pavilions website.
