"In Furthest Ind" by Edward Carlyon, edited by Sydney C. Grier, is a historical narrative written in the late 19th century. The book recounts the extraordinary adventures of Edward Carlyon, who serves in the Honourable East India Company, detailing his perilous experiences in India and his remarkable escape from the Inquisition in Goa. The narrative promises a vivid exploration of Carlyon's life, his adventures, and his interactions within the socio-political landscape of the time. The opening of the narrative introduces us to Edward Carlyon as he recounts the history of his family and background, leading to his decision to embark on a journey to the East Indies at his father's behest. Carlyon's reflections reveal a mixture of familial loyalty and the pressure to restore the family fortunes amidst the unstable political climate of England post-Civil War, eliciting a sense of duty toward both his family and his homeland. He shares tender memories of his cousin Dorothy, hinting at a childhood affection that adds emotional depth to his upcoming adventures. As he prepares for his voyage, Carlyon showcases his eagerness to embrace the life of a writer in the East Indies, setting the stage for a tale filled with adventure, intrigue, and personal growth.
