Excerpt from In the Lands of the Sun: Notes and Memories of a Tour in the EastThe following book is based chie¿y on notes made during a journey in the East in the autumn of 1911 and the spring of 1912. While some of them were written at a civilised writing-table, at least an equal number were jotted down on the edge of a bed or on my knee far out in the jungle. Fugitive moods, external impressions, and here and there brief reports of interesting conversations jostle each other in pleasing con fusion, so that my work has really consisted in arranging the materials, comparing and studying accessible authorities and giving the whole a more finished form.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
