About this book
A Scottish traveller and painter spends two years in Ceylon in the 1870s and records what she saw: Kandy and the hill country, Anuradhapura and the ancient cities, village life, festivals, elephants and coffee estates. One of the most readable Victorian accounts of the island, with a sharp eye for landscape and daily life.
