Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Zigzag Journeys in the Antipodes This tenth volume of the "Zigzag" series of books has a double purpose: (1) To make young people better acquainted with Siam and the islands of the Indian Ocean, and so to aid the teacher in his work; and (2) to illustrate the fact that kindness to harmless and tamable animals, as exemplified in Buddhist countries, adds to the general happiness of mankind. In preparing the "Zigzag" series of books, I have had many helps from experienced travellers; and in this one I am indebted to Mrs. A. H. Leonowens, author of The English Governess at the Siamese Court, who was once employed as a governess in the royal court of Siam, for a large part of the matter in the ninth chapter, and to Dr. C. A. Stephens for the plan and a part of the work in the chapter on Sumatra. These chapters, in part, originally appeared in the "Youths Companion," as also the story of the Siamese twins. I have, moreover, received helps from American missionaries in Siam and Burmah. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
