Book excerpt: Excerpt from Holy Himalaya: The Religion, Traditions, and Scenery of Himalayan Province (Kumaon and Garwhal) N dia is Britain's great romantic asset, and one of her chief claims to historical distinction. The nation that dominates the Indian peninsula is, from the standpoint of human interest and culture, the most enviable nation Of the world. The glory that was Greece and the grandeur that was Rome have passed away, and their sites only are left as relics of the past. India, on the contrary, has the more vivid charm of a treasure yet unexplored, a storehouse of existing marvels, a vast and complex field for research Of every kind. Many secrets of bygone races and eras are yet to be wrung from its buried monuments and unpublished manuscripts. Here the ancient world yet lives on in the daily lives of men. Customs, cults, and ideas that have perished from the memory of the rest of the human race are here in full force. India is the land that above all has power to stir the imagination.

This book was released on 2017-06-10 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Himalayas and on the Indian Plains For although, in the meanwhile, a flood of Indian literature has made each scene familiar (and guide-books now instruct tourists in the way they should go I know that I was unusually favoured in the companionship of men who had lived long in the country, had thoroughly mastered many of its languages, and who took the deepest interest in all questions concerning the people, their religion, and their customs in general. To the unwearied kindness of these good friends I was indebted for many a lesson in the art of observing whatever was best worth studying, in the bewildering mass of novelties which distract the new comer; and also for such clues as enabled me to venture on threading even the outskirts of the perplexing labyrinths of eastern thought.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twenty Years in the Himalaya: With 60 Illustrations and a Map I AM attempting in this book to give to those interested in Mountain Travel and Mountain Exploration, who have not been so luckily placed as myself, some account of the Hindu Koosh and Himalaya ranges. My wanderings cover a period of nineteen years, during which I have not been able to do more than pierce these vast ranges, as one might stick a needle into a bolster, in many places; for no one can lay claim to a really intimate knowledge of the Himalaya alone, as understood in the mountaineering sense at home. There are still a great number of districts which remain for me new ground, as well as the 500 miles of the Himalaya included in Nepal, which, to all intents and purposes, is still unexplored.
