Studio Orientalia’s edition of this famous travelogue is based on the first edition of 1862 published by Saunders Otley& Co. The text has been expertly retyped and newly formatted according to the original. 12 coloured plates, 2 of them folding panoramas in orginal size, nurmerousline-drawn illustrations and decorations to the text. Our intention was to march from Simla due north to L�, the capital of Lad�k ; thence west- ward to Sreenuggur, the capital of Kashmir; thence in a south-easterly direction vi�Chumba, and Kangra back to Simla, — in all, a circuit considerably over one thousand miles.This scheme was carried out in its integrity by only two of the party…. For travellers who, like us, were anxious to see as much as possible in three short months, and were not disinclined to rough it, I can conceive no better route, leading us as it did through every vicissitude of Himalayan scenery, over the high table-lands of Thibetan Tartary, into the verdant vale of Kashmir, and so back through the tamer but scarcely less beautiful scenery of the lower ranges of the Himalaya, to the tea-planted slopes of the Kangra valley, at which point the traveller may consider his wanderings in what has been called the Alpine Punjab at an end. (from chapter 1)
