''Elihu Jan’s Story: Or The Private Life Of An Eastern Queen'' is a historical fiction novel written by William Knighton in 1865. The book is set in the Middle East and tells the story of Elihu Jan, a queen who is struggling to maintain her power in a world dominated by men. The novel explores the challenges that Elihu Jan faces as a woman in a male-dominated society, including the pressure to marry and produce an heir, as well as the political intrigue and power struggles that surround her. The book is also a love story, as Elihu Jan falls in love with a British soldier named Edward, who is stationed in her country. Throughout the novel, Elihu Jan must navigate the complex social and political landscape of her world, while also balancing her love for Edward and her duty to her people. ''Elihu Jan’s Story'' is a fascinating and engaging novel that offers a unique glimpse into the private life of a powerful woman in the Middle East during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
