According to Wikipedia: Flora Annie Steel (2 April 1847 - 1929) was an English writer. She was the daughter of George Webster. In 1867 she married a member of the Indian civil service, and for the next twenty-two years lived in India, chiefly in the Punjab, with which most of her books are connected... Some of her best work is contained in two collections of short stories: From the Five Rivers (1893) and Tales of the Punjab (1894), while her most ambitious effort was her novel, On the Face of the Waters (1896), describing incidents of the Indian Mutiny.
