  • Colonel Thorndyke's Secret

    G. A. HENTY (1832 - 1902)

    MP3 CD (IDB Productions, Sept. 3, 2017)
    Conspiracy, trickery, deception, manslaughter, outlaws - An English soldier in India has illegally taken a priceless diamond bracelet from a Hindu ideal. The precious jewelry belongs to Colonel Thorndyke, who is then went back to England, where he passes away because of wounds inflicted and hands down the diamond bracelet to his family and relatives, having said to his brother of such incident, but not its exact place. In the intervening time, the burglar has made a fuss in their country India, and the Hindu devoted thought of it as their divine duty to repossess the charm at all rate. This novel also has another title "The Brahmin's Treasure". George Alfred Henty was a creative author and war correspondent. He is most popular for his old adventure fiction that were renowned in the later years of the 19th century. Some of his books are The Dragon & The Raven, For The Temple, Under Drake's Flag and In Freedom's Cause. G. A. Henty was born in Trumpington, near Cambridge. He had poor health as a child who had to spend most of the time in bed. Although he was often sick, he was an eager reader and had a vast variety of hobbies which he brought into as a grownup man. He studied at Westminster School, London, and then Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, where he was enthusiastically into sports. G. A. Henty's viable fame inspired other authors to write youthful adventure fiction in his way of writing; "Herbert Strang", Henry Everett McNeil, Percy F. Westerman and Captain Frederick Sadleir Brereton all made stories in "the Henty tradition", frequently integrating later modern topics including air travel and World War I warfare. In 1930s, though, significance in Henty's writings was decreasing in Britain, and thus some juvenile’s authors there pored over to his books as an example.

  • Beric the Briton: a Story of the Roman Invasion

    G. A. HENTY (1832 - 1902)

    MP3 CD (IDB Productions, Jan. 1, 2017)
    The Roman invasion was definitely of greater advantage to the nation, who had formerly lost their liveliness in continual ethnic conflicts, as it presented to them the evolution of Rome. Although, it sustained tragedy to the inhabitants, who adrift all their soldierly merits. Having been protected from the brutes of the north by the army of Rome, the Britons were, when the military unit were reminded, incompetent to provide some useful struggle with the Saxons, who, appearing under the pretense of amity, quickly became their rulers, striking a load much more onerous than that of Rome, and omitting about all signs of the civilization that had been instilled on them. George Alfred Henty was a creative author and war correspondent. He is most popular for his old adventure fiction that were renowned in the later years of the 19th century. Some of his books are The Dragon & The Raven, For The Temple, Under Drake's Flag and In Freedom's Cause. G. A. Henty was born in Trumpington, near Cambridge. He had poor health as a child who had to spend most of the time in bed. Although he was often sick, he was an eager reader and had a vast variety of hobbies which he brought into as a grownup man.
