Book excerpt: Excerpt from Village, Town, and Jungle, Life in India IN an article in The Calcutta Review of January 1893 on Cold Weather Visitors in India, after commenting on the mistakes made by one of them, the writer remarks that such crude and undigested impressions of India are useless and mischievous, and that, as they pass muster at home for real facts, perhaps more might be done to place a true picture of the state of things before our countrymen. He suggests that a few who have passed much of their lives in India might record the facts before Indian impressions have had time to fade away, and while they are still surrounded by all the local colour. My long experience of life in that country between 1874 and 1902 in many parts - town and jungle, hills and plains - has enabled me to collect much detailed information.
