Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Occasional Essays on Native South Indian Life
In writing on such subjects, it is almost impossible to avoid the use of some Indian words for which there are no exact English equivalents. In these cases I have added a footnote for the benefit of readers who may not be sufficiently acquainted with India to understand them. It may often happen, too, that what is commonplace to the Anglo Indian is unintelligible to the English reader, and the task of steering a middle course was not always easy.
