Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lost Cities of Ceylon The ruins of Egypt have been known for centuries, but it is only in comparatively recent years the ruins of Ceylon have been unearthed. Since then numbers have been attracted by these strange and beautiful Specimens of architecture quite unlike anything found elsewhere. After the final victories of the Tamils, when the Cingalese kings were driven to their last stronghold, Kandy, which lies among the hills in the centre of the island, the jungle growth, so extraordinarily rapid in the moist atmosphere of Ceylon, sprang up in wave upon wave, engulfing in a vast green sea the sites of these ancient capitals.

He said England now, not home. Home, for him, had come to mean the wild green heart of Ceylon. Stridently into his musings had come the talk and laughter of a party of American tourists. He had watched them with amused wonder; travelers of this type never climbed the jungle-bordered roads that led to his hills. Then, as they were obviously disappointed by their failure to find a place on the lawn sheltered from the tropic sun, it had seemed inevitable that he should give up his patch of shade and retire to the verandah. There his memory blurred. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
