THIS BOOK is written for all little lads and lasses, but especially for the former, since it is the true-quite true-story of a little lad who lived to be, perhaps, the greatest king this world has ever seen. 
It is a strange, wild tale this of the adventures of Prince Akbar among the snowy mountains between Kandahar and Kabul, and though the names may be a bit of a puzzle at first, as they will have to be learned by and bye in geography and history lessons, it might be as well to get familiar with them in a story-book; though, indeed, as everybody in it except Roy the Rajput, Meroo the cook boy; Tumbu, the dog; and Down, the cat (and these four may have been true, you know, though they have not been remembered) really lived, I don't know whether this book oughtn't to be considered real history, and therefore 

A LESSON BOOK: 

'Anyhow, I hope you won't find it dull.'
