Opis: A Popular Account of the Manners and Customs of India (Classic Reprint) - Acland Charles

Excerpt from A Popular Account of the Manners and Customs of India<br><br>The author of the present work was a clergyman, who, along with his wife, quitted England about the beginning of the year 1842, leaving behind him several young children, to whom, as appears from the letters he constantly addressed to them, he was most affectionately attached.<br><br>They left the country full of hope that they should all be reunited at some future period; but, before he had been three years exposed to the climate of India, he fell a victim to it. It is somewhat melancholy to find him at the outset rejoicing in the very circumstance which in some measure perhaps occasioned his death. The first destination selected for him was little in accordance with his own taste; and when it subsequently was altered from Assam to Cuttack, he expresses himself delighted with the change, though the first-named province was much more remarkable for its healthfulness than that to which he at length proceeded.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
