Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Java: The Garden of the East
Attractions and possible resorts will invite pleasure travel; and, leading one from end to end of Java, it more than supplements what Captain Schulze's little guide had done for Batavia and the west end of the island. Translating so much of local and special lore hitherto locked away from the alien visitor in Dutch texts, it at last fairly opens Java to the tourist world, and excites my keen regret that its earlier publication had not lighted my way.
