The great Indian Empire is the champion land for romance and adventure. In this story a little Yankee lad is kidnapped from his home. By the aid of a detective, an older brother, a lad of 16 years, traces him to India. The adventures of the two, one as a captive, the other as a rescuer, in different parts of the empire, are thrilling, dealing as they do with the Natives, the Snake Charmers and Jugglers, Royal Personages and Mountaineers, Tiger Hunts, Elephant and Rhinoceros Fights. The descriptions of Scenery, Customs and Wonders are graphic and instructive. Many of the illustrations are from special photographs taken for the author while in India.
