Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Geography of India: Physical, Political, and Commercial
1. The great continent of Asia divides in the south into three vast peninsulas Arabia on the west, indo-china on the east, and the southern half of India in the centre. India proper includes the whole of the central peninsula, and stretches northwards to the mountain ranges which separate it from Central Asia. The northern half is often called Continental India, to distinguish it from Peninsular India, the southern half. The Tropic of Cancer is, speaking roughly, the dividing line between these two. From this line Peninsular India stretches southwards for more than or over miles while Continental India extends almost as far to the north.
