ANTHONY, JOHN. (ENGLISHED BY). - The Story of Hassan (Hassan Ali Shah): A Novel of India written by Himself and Englished by John Anthony.

London: Nisbet & Co.Ltd, 1928. 0. First edition. "There is something very piquant about Hassan's account of the English in India and of their quaint ideas of order and practice, the absurdity and extravagance of which are a continued surprise to him when contrasted with the eminently sane and reasonable native practices in such matters as bribery, perjury and the proper chastisement of a wife. This entertaining autobiography is interspersed with characteristic anecdotes told by an Indian story-teller." Pp.279. Green cloth, dustwrapper (illustrated by H.E.Watson) is slightly rubbed with small tear to lower rear edge and now in a clear protective wrap. VG/G+.
