Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Mad Rani: And Other Sketches of Indian Life and Thought My Dear William, The memorable journey which you and I made together last year round half the globe was a varied and delightful experience which neither of us will readily forget; and I think it will interest you to know that there is a real, though not an obvious, connection between that journey (or rather series of journeys) and the production of these sketches. This connection is not obvious; for, though we saw and heard many surprising things in the ports and cities of the Far East - from Burmah to China, from Manchuria and Japan to Honolulu -, these stories are in no way derived from those adventures; but are, as you know, based entirely upon my own experiences in India during the quarter of a century preceding our travel. The connection however is none the less real: for, if it had not been for your industry, example and encouragement, I doubt if I should ever have troubled, or ventured, to set pen to paper at all.
