Publisher's Synopsis
A Scramble Through The Hills To Cashmere is a travelogue written by William Frederick A. Colman in 1864. The book chronicles Colman's journey through the Himalayan mountains to the city of Cashmere, which is now known as Srinagar. The author describes his experiences in vivid detail, including encounters with local people, the natural beauty of the landscape, and the challenges of traveling through rugged terrain. Colman also provides insights into the culture and customs of the people he meets along the way. The book is a fascinating account of a journey through a region that was relatively unknown to Westerners in the 19th century. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in travel writing, Himalayan culture, or the history of exploration.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
