Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Memoirs of a White Elephant We are told by writers of antiquity that elephants have written sentences in Greek, and that one of them was even known to speak. There is, therefore, nothing unreasonable in the supposition that the White Elephant of this history, the famous "Iravata" so celebrated throughout Asia, should have written his own memoirs. The story of his long existence - at times so glorious, and at other times so full of misfortune - in the kingdom of Siam, and the India of the Maharajahs and the English, is full of most curious and interesting adventure. After being almost worshipped as an idol, Iravata becomes a warrior; he is made prisoner with his master, whose life he saves, and whom he assists to escape.
