Omschrijving

The Story of Little Henry and His Bearer Boosy: A Tale of Dinapore is a children's book written by Mary Martha Sherwood and first published in 1866. The story is set in Dinapore, India, during the British Raj and follows the adventures of a young boy named Henry and his Indian bearer, Boosy. Henry is a lonely child who is sent to India to live with his father, a British officer stationed in Dinapore. He is initially frightened by the unfamiliar surroundings and the presence of Boosy, who is tasked with caring for him. However, as he spends more time with Boosy, Henry begins to see the world through his bearer's eyes and learns to appreciate the beauty and complexity of Indian culture. Throughout the book, Henry and Boosy embark on a series of adventures, including a visit to a local bazaar, a trip to a Hindu temple, and a ride on an elephant. Along the way, they encounter a variety of characters, both British and Indian, and learn important lessons about friendship, respect, and cultural understanding. The Story of Little Henry and His Bearer Boosy is a charming and engaging tale that offers a unique perspective on the British Raj and the relationship between British officers and their Indian servants. It is also a valuable resource for children interested in learning more about Indian culture and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
