Excerpt from The Arts and Crafts of India and Ceylon That the work is divided into two parts, the first concerned with Hindu and Buddhist art, the latter with the Musulman arts, is solely to facilitate an un derstanding of their historical relations and psycho logical development: I do not forget that in almost every art and craft, as also in music, there exists in Hindustan a complete and friendly fusion of the two cultures. The non-sectarian character of the styles of Indian art has indeed always been conspicuous; so that it is often only by special details that one can distinguishjain from Buddhist st pas, Buddhist from Hindu sculpture, or the Hindu from the Musulmz'm minor crafts. The one great distinction of Mughal from Hindu art is not so much racial as social; the former is an art of courts and connoisseurs, owing much to individual patronage, the latter belongs as' much to the folk as to the kings.

Excerpt from India and Ceylon With this fact in view, I can scarcely hope that my jour ney to India will arouse any particular interest - especially as an abundance of the best literature descriptive of that wonderful country is already in existence - and I ought perhaps to apologize for asking the reader to accompany me. My personal interests as naturalist and nature's friend alo'ne prompt the journey I am about to undertake. The most earnest desire of every naturalist that has made the organic forms of life a lifelong study, is to stand face to face with the wonders of nature in the tropics; for only here, under the enhancing influence of the sun's light and heat, are developed those astonishing types of form com pared with which the flora and fauna of our temperate zone are but weak and colorless imitations.

Excerpt from The Men of India and Ceylon Ship me somewheres east of Suez. Where the best is like the worst. Where there aren't no Ten Commandments, an' a man can raise a thirst. And not only a thirst for whiskey, but a fiery, demon-like thirst for long nights of reveling after the scorching days; a thirst for that thrilling recklessness of absolute self-abandon ment which creeps over him with the thought that Winding lanes, green fields and happy kindred are leagues and leagues away and he is unnoticed and alone.

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.
