Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from England in 1835, Vol. 3 of 3: Being a Series of Letters Written to Friends in Germany, During a Residence in London and Excursions Into the Provinces I have promised to write you something respecting India. This was a rash promise, for a whole life would not suffice to obtain a complete knowledge of it, and, if I speak of everything, I must necessarily be superficial. Qui embrasse tout n´étreint rein. But, on the other hand, it is far from my purpose, or my pretension, to exhaust the subject; I shall merely select and compress some portions from the abundance of the materials which I have before me. The name of India glides over the tongue as easily as those of Germany, Italy, &c.; and yet it is not a single country, but an aggregate of countries and nations, of the most varied nature and character, and almost equal in extent to the whole of Europe. The Ghauts, in the Deccan, are 13,000 feet in height; the Himalaya mountains are 27,000. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
