"The Broken Road" by A. E. W. Mason is a novel published in 1907, set in India during British rule. When a strategic road project sparks local resistance and bloodshed, young Dick Linforth grows up determined to complete his father's unfinished work. His childhood friendship with an Indian prince, educated in England alongside him, seems promising—until both men fall for the same woman and political tensions force the prince to choose between
two worlds. Mason's story of ambition, loyalty, and colonial conflict exposed injustices that prompted real governmental reform. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
