"A Noble Queen: A Romance of Indian History (Volume 1 of 3)" by Meadows Taylor is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds during a tumultuous period in Indian history, focusing on the heroic figure of Queen Chand Beebee, who fiercely resisted the Moghul armies during their invasion of the Dekhan region. The book follows the struggles of various characters, particularly the young cavalier Abbas Khan, who faces both personal and political challenges amid the conflict. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to a party of weary horsemen in the hot plains north of the Krishna river, led by Abbas Khan. Following a sudden attack, they attempt to evade capture as they navigate a harsh landscape filled with mirage and danger. As Abbas Khan battles exhaustion and wounds sustained in skirmishes with rival forces, his followers risk their lives to protect him. The opening vividly sets the scene for the unfolding drama, blending personal valor with the broader conflicts of loyalty, rebellion, and survival against the backdrop of a richly detailed historical landscape.
