Alfred Assollant
The novel “Once Upon a Time in India: The Marvelous Adventures of Captain Corcoran” was written in the 1860s, by a Frenchman Alfred Assollant, about India, which has been translated into English for the first time by Sam Miller. It is a wacky, madcap tale of intrigue and romance set during the days of the India’s First War of Independence in 1857. It was a wild hit of its times and translated into six languages, including Russian and Polish, but was so relentlessly rude about the British that it was never translated into English.
