E. William Knighton : The Private Life of an Eastern King

E. M. Forster to Laura Mary Forster, 19 February 1913: 'Do you know Sleeman's Rambles and Recollections of an Indian Official? It is a charming book to read in, but the best chapter, about a Suttee on the Nerbudda, you would perhaps be inclined to skip. I have also been reading The Private Life of an Eastern King by E. W. Knighton who was librarian to one of the Kings of Oudh, a very entertaining and interesting little book, and it rings true. It is certainly out of print, but may be in the L[ondon] L[ibrary].'
