Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer
Second edition; 4to; 40 tinted lithographed plates (including pictorial title), some spotting and mild toning, water-stain affecting fore-edge of most plates, to varying degree; publisher's decorative cloth gilt designed by Digby Wyatt, gilt edges, splits to cloth at spine joints, shelf lean, wear to fore-corners. A fairly light-hearted account of life in British Empire era India, with 40 textual vignettes accompanied by lithographed plates after watercolours. Atkinson also authored the slightly more serious tome The Campaign in India, charting the process leading to the siege of Delhi and its recapture, the principal events of the 1857 revolt, unsurpassed as a record of the English attitude to India at that time.
