The Thuggees were a roving tribe of assassins and criminals who terrorized India for centuries. This fictionalized autobiography of a member of the Thuggees was a runaway bestseller in nineteenth-century England. Author Philip Meadows Taylor is said to have based the book on his conversations with Syeed Amir Ali (also known as Feringhea), a long-time member of the group.
