Hardcover. Condition: New. India, a stately and sonorous word! To the thoughtful scholar it suggests distance, vastness, wealth, scenic and historic charms, ancient art, barbaric wealth, as well as potential factors of national greatness. Sir Edwin Arnold has not unduly exalted the importance of a visit of India in any liberal e…ducation. No thinker can be in an intellectual exile here. The student of language, history, ancient philosophy, or antique civilization finds a treasure house in the India of the past. She has been the nurse of useful arts, of subtle thought, and of epic verse. Fantastic mythologies, curious speculations, and occult sciences have here had their home. But the India of the future is to be a nobler study still. The volume is profusely illustrated by pen and pencil. It is being offered to the millions of readers, young and old, to whom the past and the future of this land of romance presents a vivid and an imperishable charm.
