SOME PRESS OPINIONS OF THE FIRST EDITION

The Times.—“ The book is a pure delight. The authors have happily blended a cheerful and inquiring wonderment with a wealth of rare information, The man who does not care for Oriental churches or primitive survivals will find it worth his while to read the book, if only for the sake of the anecdotes and humour of the authors. Those who do care about such things will find to their joy that the writers give them all the information they require.”

The Scotsman.—“ A peculiarly spirited and readable account of an interest- ing, romantic country. The narrative is always made interesting By the rich variety of information which it conveys and by the brightness with which the writers set down their impressions and criticiams. It is well illustrated,”

The World.—‘‘The work is so lighted up by genial humour, so frequent in amusing stories and literary allusion, that it stands unrivalled among latter-day books of travel.”

The Observer.—'‘‘ No more interesting book of travel could any man want. It is well written and exciting. The illustrations, too, are exceptionally well produced and good.”

Pall Mall Gazette.—“ The book teems with delightful and refreshing interest.”

Westminster Gazette.—-“ A very interesting and able book.”
