An Empire Story: Stories of India and the Greater Colonies Told to Children (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from An Empire Story: Stories of India and the Greater Colonies Told to Children
But although we are proud of our Empire it may be that some of us know little of its history. We only know it as it now is, and we forget perhaps that there was a time when it did not exist. We forget that it has grown to be great out of very small beginnings. We forget that it did not grow great all at once, but that with pluck and patience our fellow-countrymen built it up by little and by little, each leaving behind him a vaster inheritance than he found. So, 'lest we forget,' in this book I have told a few of the most exciting and interest ing stories about the building up of this our great heritage and possession.
