From Adam's Peak To Elephanta is a travelogue written by Edward Carpenter. The book takes the reader on a journey through India, exploring the country's rich culture, traditions, and history. The author starts his journey at Adam's Peak, a sacred mountain in Sri Lanka, and then travels to various parts of India, including Madras, Bombay, and Calcutta. Along the way, he visits temples, meets with local people, and learns about the country's diverse religions and customs. The book also delves into the political and social issues of India at that time, including the struggle for independence from British colonial rule. Carpenter's vivid descriptions of the landscapes, people, and places he encounters make this book a fascinating read for anyone interested in travel, culture, and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
