Descripción

About The Book: In this book, the author recounts her early travels in India with her husband, before the advent of the railroad. She provides a faithful account of life in India, its sights, and scenes. Despite the introduction of the railroad, India's traditional way of life remains largely unchanged, with the people deeply connected to nature and worshipping the elements. The author acknowledges that India has made progress over the years, transitioning from its imaginative youth to a more mature age. The transfer of India to British Crown and laws protecting the ryots have fueled a desire among the people to become landowners and return to agriculture. England's security measures have also curbed oppressive practices and abolished harmful customs. The author believes that India's future holds great promise under the more liberal policies of England since the 1857 mutiny.
