Publication details: Ernest Benn,1929,
Rare Book
The author spent many years in India, where he was a friend of Tagore, Gandhi and Nehru, becoming an authority on the country's history and Anglo-Indian relations; the present work, based on his wartime service in Palestine, differs from standard accounts in its focus on the 'life and traditions of the localities' rather than the conflict that had taken him there.
