Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

'Himalayan Journals — Complete' is a travelog by Joseph Dalton Hooker, a British botanist and explorer of the 19th century. For twenty years, he served as the director of the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, and was Charles Darwin's closest friend. In this book, Hooker documents his travels through India, including Sunderbunds, Burdwan, Soorujkoond, Benares, Patna, Seetakoond, and Bhaugulpore, among others. He writes about the geology, vegetation, and natural history of each region, detailing his encounters with various animals, such as tigers, alligators, and tortoises, as well as native tribes, including the Lepchas, Limboos, and Magras. Hooker's descriptions of the landscape, flora, and fauna of the Himalayan region are vivid and insightful, making this book an exciting read for anyone interested in botany, travel, and natural history.
