The Obstacle Race (Paperback)

1921. Dell, British writer, began writing at a young age. Most of her stories are ones of passion and love set in India and other British colonial possessions. The story begins: A long, green wave ran up, gleaming like curved glass in the sunlight, and broke in a million sparkles against a shelf of shingle. Above the shingle rose the soft cliffs, clothed with scrubby grass and crowned with gorse. Columbus, said the stranger, this is just the place for us.
