Publisher's Synopsis
Attractive little books are those in the Violet Series, in which The Silence of the Maharajah, by Marie Corelli, has been published. This is a strongly drawn etching of social life in India, whose vivid interest is not lessened by the fact that the story carries another protest against man's inhumanity to woman. Often a moral spoils a story. This story succeeds in conveying its purpose without interfering with the reader's interest.
