Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Diary of a Civilian's Wife in India, 1877-1882, Vol. 2 of 2
Naim' T til, Oct. 17. - We got up here just before sunset, and have got rooms at the Mayo Hotel, opening out of a long wooden verandah on the second ?oor, very much like a Swiss hotel. We are close to the lake, so that its clear green water seemsto come right up to the house, as we look out from our rooms. It is enclosed by steep hills wooded down to the water's edge and reminding us much of Come on a miniature scale the lake is only one and a half mile long and half a mile broad. Canoes and boats are scudding about, and a little yacht is now going by with its snow-white sails shining in the bright sun. It is curious to think that every boat has been brought up.
