Books with author S A Knight

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

But there was no cover The Rajah's men were well armed and were good marksmen. And at length, when the sun, like a round shield of burnished copper, was low down in the west, the bugle had sounded the retire. The stormers, in falling back, had carried off their wounded; but the red - coated dead were still lying where they fell, some of them at the very foot of the wall, among the wrecks of broken scaling-ladders.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
