Publisher's Synopsis

""Account of Koonawur, in the Himalaya, etc."" is a travelogue written by Alexander Gerard in 1841. The book describes his journey through the Koonawur region of the Himalayas, which is located in present-day Himachal Pradesh, India. Gerard provides a detailed account of the geography, people, and culture of the region, as well as his experiences and observations during his travels. He describes the natural beauty of the Himalayas, including the snow-capped peaks, glaciers, and rivers. He also writes about the local customs and traditions of the people, including their dress, food, and religious practices. The book is an important historical document that provides insights into the life and culture of this remote region during the mid-19th century. It is a valuable resource for historians, geographers, and anyone interested in the Himalayan region and its people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
