NEW PRINT WITH PROFESSIONAL TYPE-SET IN CONTRAST TO SCANNED PRINTS OFFERED BY OTHERS The Mercy Of The Lord This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a fresh and newly reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work.

Autorenporträt
Flora Annie Webster Steel (1847-1929) was an English writer known for her richly detailed historical novels and her deep engagement with Indian culture. As the wife of a colonial administrator during the British Raj, Steel's unique position allowed her to immerse herself in the everyday lives of Indian people, an experience that became a cornerstone of her literary work. Steel penned a variety of texts but is best remembered for her insightful portrayals of Indian society. 'The Mercy of the Lord,' while less well-known than her seminal work, 'On the Face of the Waters' (1896), showcasing the 1857 Sepoy Mutiny, or her popular manual, 'The Complete Indian Housekeeper and Cook' (1888), which offered domestic advice to British women in India, reflects her narrative aptitude and cultural understanding. Her literary style often wove social commentary with vivid storytelling, earning her the moniker of the female Rudyard Kipling. Despite sometimes being critiqued for her colonial perspectives, Steel's writing remains significant for its descriptive power and contribution to Anglo-Indian literature, providing readers with an intricate perspective of colonial India's social fabric. Her body of work affords valuable insight into the cross-cultural dynamics of her time, marking her as a critical figure in historical and literary circles.
