Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from The High-Road of Empire: Water-Colour and Pen-and-Ink Sketches in India

I have, I hope, given typical views of typical places, but though not neglecting the more strik ing scenes and buildings which form the goal of every pilgrim's quest, I have tried to fix the attention of lovers of the beautiful on the essentially picturesque side, on the little pictures that unfold themselves at every turn of the wheel of life in India and might well be overlooked by the casual wayfarer.
