Synopsis
Excerpt from India and Its Faiths: A Traveller's Record
It is only right that I should here express my indebtedness to a number of friends and acquaintances without whose assist ance this book would not have been worth writing. Most of all am I indebted to my wife, whose quick eyes caught many an Indian scene which but for her I should have missed, whose criticism and suggestion have been my most trusted guides, and who through many hours of patient work typewrote my manuscript and made a large part of my index. Much of my information, beside that gleaned from books and periodicals, I owe to the following gentlemen whose acquaintance I made in India: the Reverend W. B. Stover, of Ankleshvar; Mr. Jivanji Jamshedji Modi and Mr. Aderj i, of Bombay; Mr. Lala Hansraj and Principal Lala San Das, of the Dayanand Anglo Vedic' College in Lahore, and Professor 5. C. Sen, of the Dyal Singh College in the same city; Mr. Aj it Prasada, of Lucknow; Mr. Kumar Devend-ra Prasad, Of Allahabad; Mr. Bhagavan Das and Dr. Toreporawalla, of the Central Hindu College.
