Philip L. Carroll brings to life the recollections, memories and poems of his late uncle Henry M. King in this unique and fascinating collection. Henry M. King was born in India in 1911 in the Garrison town of Allahabad. At that time, in the British Military Zone, the British Raj was strong and the Indians with whom Henry came in contact were a source and inspiration for many stories and writings. With rich and colorful vitality and detail, Henry also recounted his days as a boarder at Lawrence College in Ghora Gali. During his intriguing life, his keen and insightful interest in his surroundings is evident in his memoirs. Henry M. King remained in India until November, 1947. This book is dedicated in loving memory of Margaret Alice King Carroll McGuire.

The poems of Henry King, friend of John Donne and executor of his will, were edited in 1965, but his sermons, fine examples of 17th century prose, which span the period from the reign of James I to that of Charles II, have never been reprinted. The Sermons of Henry King makes their text available in the original spelling (with some editing of Greek and Latin). Only 21 survive, 11 of which were published in 1628 as An Exposition upon the Lords Prayer. King used language lucidly, persuasively, and without the straining of conceits found in many sermon writers of the period. At his best, he has few equals for grace of structure, sweetness of sound, elegiac intensity of mood, and occasional dry wit. His prose is also of importance for a fuller understanding of his poetry, presenting new evidence for the dating and canon of his poems, his methods of composition, and his reading.
