Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a travelogue that takes the reader on a journey through India during a period of great social and political change, beginning in 1870, when the country was still under British rule. The author, who is a keen observer of both the natural and human landscapes, provides a vivid account of the people, places, and customs he encounters along the way. He explores the religious diversity of India, visiting Hindu temples, Buddhist stupas, and Jain caves, and offering insights into the beliefs and practices of each faith. The book also delves into the history of the Thuggee cult, a group of assassins who strangled their victims as a religious ritual. Through the author's evocative descriptions and thoughtful reflections, this book offers a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era of Indian history and culture. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
