Excerpt from The Edge of EmpireThe bungalow stood back from the Gulmarg Road, its garden a riot of colour and scent, its front windows facing across a wide grass slope sprinkled with fruit trees in blossom that dropped to the noisy river some hundred feet below, while behind it the forest rose steeply like delicate green spray tossed in the air. Above the spring foliage came the darker green of pines growing in serried ranks along the, rockier higher slopes, then even the pines ceased and the snow began, leagues of diamond-shining whiteness rising in unmeasured heights against a sky of dazzling blue.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
