Katherine the Arrogant is a novel written by B. M. Croker. The book is set in India during the British Raj and follows the story of Katherine, a strong-willed and arrogant woman who is determined to marry a wealthy man and climb the social ladder. Katherine's journey is filled with obstacles, including her own pride and the disapproval of those around her. Despite these challenges, Katherine is determined to achieve her goals and will stop at nothing to get what she wants. The novel explores themes of love, ambition, and the consequences of selfishness. With vivid descriptions of India's landscape, culture, and society, Katherine the Arrogant is a captivating tale of a woman's journey towards self-discovery and redemption.1914. With a frontispiece. The book begins: It was four o'clock on a cheerless February afternoon; a hopeless drizzle descended upon London, and a gaunt old woman, wrapped in a knitted shawl, stood at the window of a boardinghouse, peering into the street. Although she nodded her head, and blinked her eyes approvingly, there was not much to see-in fact, the outlook was as dull and devoid of interest as the lady's own existence. A row of ugly houses, a leaden sky, a scanty procession of umbrellas, cabs, and carts, and one miserable lost dog, frightened and famishing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
