She notably lived in British India for 22 years and is best remembered for her books set or related to the sub-continent. Other notable works by this author include: "Tales of the Punjab" (1894), "The Flower of Forgiveness" (1894), and "The Potter's Thumb" (1894).Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an essay from "The Garden of Fidelity" by R. R. Clark.

In 1867 Flora Steel married a member of the Indian civil service, and for the next twenty-two years lived in India, chiefly in the Punjab, with which most of her books are connected. She was interested in interacting with Indian women of all classes and used the birth of her daughter to meet these women. She encouraged the production of local handicrafts and collected folk-tales. Tales Of The Punjab was published in 1894. From the very beginning the young reader is drawn into the stories. "Would you like to know how these stories are told? Come with me, and you shall see. There! take my hand and do not be afraid, for Prince Hassan's carpet is beneath your feet. So now!--'Hey presto! Abracadabra!' Here we are in a Punjabi village." Some of the tales included are Sir Buzz, The Rat's Wedding, The Faithful Prince, The Bear's Bad Bargain, Prince Lion heart and his Three Friends, The Lambkin, and Bopoluchi

The book you are holding in your hands is a collection of six short stories written by a grandmother who wanted to introduce her grandchildren to the land of their origin, Punjab in Pakistan. The name 'Punjab' is derived from the Farsi/ Persian words broadly translating to 'five rivers'. Tales from the Land of Five Rivers went to the printers because of the social isolation and the unique circumstances created by Covid-19. The six tales are a peek at the colourful Punjab of the author's childhood, a joy she wanted to share with children from around the world. These stories evolved while the kids steered their grandmother on with endless questions about the land of their origin. There is one inspired by 'Basant, ' the colourful kite festival, while the rest are about endearing birds and animals and the joy that kids derive by bonding with them. The stories are very descriptive and rendered in a manner that captivates a child's imagination right from the very beginning. The author, my mother, did not forget to add a moral lesson to her fiction. This has been done very discreetly, making the stories as meaningful as they are entertaining. Ahmed Naeem
