Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Kipling's India
Heart of the Himalayas where Kim and the lama and Hurree Babu stalked the Russian spies; thence south west to the Great Rajputana Desert, the country of The Strange Ride of M orrowbie J ukes, and of Nick Tarvin of The N aulahha; northward again to the Border Country on the trail of Dravot and Carnehan of The Man Who Would Be King; and of J akin and Lew of The Bruins of the Fore and Aft; from the Border down through India to Burma; and along the haunting road to Mandalay. Let the reader suppose, then, for example, that he is a tourist in India - like Pagett', M. P., of the verses, though with qualifications, for Pagett, M. P., was a liar, and a ?uent liar therewith - and that his ship has brought him into Bombay Harbour to begin his tour through Kipling's India.
