A Practical Guide To The Climates And Weather Of India, Ceylon And Burma And The Storms Of Indian Seas is a comprehensive guidebook written by Henry Francis Blanford and first published in 1889. The book provides a detailed account of the various climates and weather patterns of India, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), and Burma (now Myanmar), as well as the storms that occur in the Indian seas. Blanford, a British geologist and meteorologist, draws on his extensive experience and research to provide practical information for travelers, explorers, and residents of these regions. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the monsoon seasons, the effects of altitude on climate, and the characteristics of different regions within India, Ceylon, and Burma. Blanford also discusses the various types of storms that occur in the Indian seas, including cyclones, typhoons, and hurricanes. He provides advice on how to prepare for and deal with these storms, as well as information on the history of major storms that have affected the region. Overall, A Practical Guide To The Climates And Weather Of India, Ceylon And Burma And The Storms Of Indian Seas is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the weather and climate of South Asia, and a fascinating glimpse into the scientific understanding of these phenomena in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
